5. We are doing individual practice times. Starting the week of the 16th:
Most of you have received your information for your practice time and have also confirmed with me that this time and category is acceptable to you.
If you haven’t received any communication from me about this that means that you need to fill out the google form.

6. YOU HAVE TO FILL OUT THE GOOGLE FORM!

7. This is what practice will look like.
Week A/B Rotation schedule:
Week A -
Group 1 will be with Coach
Group 2 will be with category mentor
Week B -
Group 2 will be with coach
Group 1 will be with category mentor.
You will have the same practice time every week whether you are with a coach or with your category mentor.

8. On your practice day:
If you are hanging around waiting for your practice time - you will group downstairs in the commons to bond, do homework, go over lines, work on editing, etc. There will be a captain in the commons for every day that there is practice.
When it is time for your practice - head upstairs to E3 and wait politely outside the room your coach is in until they are ready for you.

9. “But I wanna watch my speech-peeps!”
Okay - you are encouraged to sit in on a couple of practices in your category if you can. You do not have to if your schedule does not allow you to.
Practices are not open to any outside of the category for the time being. We may open it up at a later date.
The goal of the commons is to give you space and freedom to make yourselves a family, but not drive your teachers insane at the same time.
