Expectations for Parents & Students

The following are the responsibilities I expect each student to assume.

The student will:

• Arrive at each scheduled lesson on time with all of the required materials;

• Arrive at each lesson well prepared, having practiced the previously assigned passages;

• Arrive at each lesson ready to learn and ask questions with a positive attitude; and

• Perform in a public or semi-public venue at least once annually to celebrate his or her achievement;

• Notify Mrs. Anderson in the event that he or she will be absent for a scheduled lesson.

I understand that not all students will have an accompanying parent, given his or her age. However, in those cases, these are the obligations I assume each parent will willingly undertake.

The parent(s) will:

• Provide contact information;

• Provide any necessary timely transportation;

• Provide any necessary instrument and materials in a timely manner;

• Provide a conducive home environment for individual practice, i.e. remove as many distractions as possible;

• Provide positive, encouraging support;

• Freely address any concerns or questions for immediate resolution.
