Week 22

Good Afternoon Grissom Choir,


Any outside food and drink (fast food, Starbucks, Dunkin, etc…) will no longer be allowed in the choir room during class, NO EXCEPTIONS.  School breakfast and lunch are allowed, but for those that have choir 1st block, food must be consumed before 8:30.

For those that have choir 1st block, I have been VERY lenient towards tardiness and students have begun taking advantage of this.  It is not fair to those who are on time and are in their seats by 8:30 every day.  Beginning this week, if you are not in your seat by the time the bell rings, you will be required to sign the tardy log.  3 tardies will result in a Tiger Time Detention.

Beginning this week, ALL students will be required to place their phones in phone holders during class.  To encourage punctuality, I will be placing a power strip next to the phone pockets which will be available on a first come first serve basis.
