Our goals are set up for you, the members and staff. Included are our guidelines and procedures for Cadet parents that should make your time with us more enjoyable, productive, and beneficial to the members.  \nWe provide our parents with a handbook as well as the member handbooks. We find the more everyone knows, the more things tend to run smoothly. Please take the time to go through this information in detail, as it includes answers to many questions.  \nFamiliarize yourself with the Member Handbook as well. Each member will receive a handbook and should know what is expected from them at all times. Please take time to review the handbook with your student so that you are both aware of our expectations.  \nAlways remember we are creating a place for your child to be successful in new and profound ways. Success and learning occur through being able to make mistakes and learning it is okay to make mistakes. We expect a high level of responsibility from your child, and you will be surprised at how well they follow through.  \nPlease help us and the membership by,  \n- Offering to help the members, but not to do things for them  \n- Offering praise and suggestions, not criticism.  \n- Be encouraging and expecting, instead of requiring.  \n- Being positive and helpful, especially in times of inconvenience.  \n- Listening, following, and relaying staff instructions.  \nCommunication  \nThe more we know, the better we can be. We will mail and email as much information as possible. We will provide you and your child with a detailed itinerary for trips distributed within a week or two of each trip to ensure as much detail as possible. Daily schedules are posted on the door of the trailer every morning.  \nABSENCES need to be brought to the director’s attention as early as possible, so rehearsal plans can be developed to accommodate a balance of each child’s needs. Your student’s consistent attendance is crucial to the success of the Colt Cadets. There are no back-up players! When a student is missing, a piece of our competitive program is missing as well. Unexcused orunreported absences are not tolerated.  \nPlease communicate via email or cell to the director prior to any absence. We obviously understand in the event of an emergency –just let us know as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.  \nIf you need to get in touch with us or your child:  \nDavid’s Cell Phone: 773-308-6710 [Email:](Email: david@colts.org)[ ](Email: david@colts.org)[david@colts.org](Email: david@colts.org)  \nColts Office: 563-582-4872 David’s Office Line: 563-582-4872 x5  \nThe director carries a cell phone which is always on. If you do not get through, please leave avoicemail and we will call you back as soon as possible. While we are on the road, members do not always have open access to phones at shows or housing sites. We do allow cell phones on tour but ask members not to use them during rehearsals or when being given directions by an adult. The best time to communicate with a member is during a meal or travel time.  \n[david@colts.org](david@colts.org) is the best way to reach the director. Email is checked regularly and is the fastest way to most answers.  \nREMIND101:  \nRemind101 is an application that allows teachers to communicate with all their students simultaneously via text message. The director will create a Remind101 group for students and a group for parents to be utilized during the summer. This will allow students and parents to be notified of sudden changes in schedule or in the event of an emergency. Simple instructions on how to receive these messages will be distributed closer to summer.  \nThings you can do at home to help befo","cbCaieMDTKvgFVql","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieMDTKvgFVql","pdf",1341737,14,"English","# Parent Guide\n## Setting up your student for success\n## Communication and updates\n## Absences and attendance expectations\n## At-home preparation before summer\n# Volunteer Guide\n## Feeding and caring on the road\n## During rehearsal and show conduct\n## Trip schedules and itineraries\n## When unable to travel: Volunteer Commitment Form","[{\"question\":\"How should parents handle absences and what are the attendance expectations?\",\"answer\":\"Absences need to be brought to the director’s attention as early as possible so rehearsal plans can be adjusted.
