Absence Policy
PYCO members are allowed two absences only per semester (three absences for Jr. Wind Ensemble members). Members must inform the orchestra manager of their absences as soon as possible in writing by sending an email to info@pyco.org. No verbal notifications are allowed.
In the case of an emergency that comes up the day of rehearsal, please call or text 412-600-5369.
If a member knows in advance that she or he will have more than two absences (three absences for Jr. Wind Ensemble members), he or she must notify their ensemble director in writing beforehand. A strict attendance policy is maintained to ensure the quality of our ensembles.
Every member is required to arrive at least 10 minutes before the start time of their rehearsal. If you arrive by the start time of the rehearsal, YOU WILL BE CONSIDERED LATE. Late arrival to the rehearsal will be counted as 1/2 absence.
Dismissal from PYCO will occur with more than the allowed number of absences and there will be no refund of tuition.
