EXPECTATIONS
(Please review the contract below prior to Auditions)
This document will give students and their families an idea of expectations of participating in advanced drama and/or cirque. In addition, students who are accepted into the program will be expected to sign a behavior and social media contract that will have clearly stated expectations and consequences. Parents will be asked to acknowledge this student contract as well. Students will be held accountable to these behaviors and standards.
In addition, Advanced Drama One-Act Play is a GHSA sanctioned sport and students are expected to comply with the 365 days/24 hours behavior standards per the Fulton County Athletic/Parent Handbook for GHSA Sanctioned Interscholastic Athletic Activities (Student Code of Conduct pp 8-11). Parents and students will be required to sign-off that they have read and understand the information in the “Handbook”.
