JOHS Band Handbook/Instrument Care

Instrument Care

    School owned instruments become the responsibility of the students to whom they are issued.  (Metro Instrument Check Out Forms are available from the directors).  Any damage done other than normal wear and tear will be repaired at the student's expense.

    Individual instruments must always be maintained in top playing condition.  Always show the director your instrument before taking it in for repairs.

    Remember that horseplay can cause damage to instruments and equipment.  Be careful with your own instrument, place it out of harm's way if it is necessary for you to put it down, and never play around with or play on anyone else's instrument.
