We expect to be home around 5:30pm. You will be tired, but nobody may go until his or her uniform is hung up and the bus is CLEAN (BY THE TEACHERS’ AND DRIVERS’ STANDARDS)

  11. Hotel Information • Bed Set up • Room Checks for attendance and cleanliness • Hallways • Noise level/Discipline • Security • Pool

  12. Bus Information We charter our transportation so they are not school buses. There are TVs about every four seats and restrooms, though we do not encourage the use of them. Most busses have both DVD players and VCRs. Movie Policy: G, PG, and most PG-13’s will work. Absolutely no R- rated movies will be shown. All movies must be brought to Mr. Pack or Ms. Meyerson for approval at least one week before the trip. Please label the movies so they can be returned.

  13. Can I bring…..? • No • Game systems that need to be plugged into the hotel television • ---------------------------------------------------------------------- • Yes • CD players, radios, hand held video games (SOUND WILL BE TURNED OFF), snacks, pillow, blanket, cell phones (Just be courteous to those around you while using it.) Don’t leave valuable items unattended.

  14. Be early. This includes check-in times and especially performance call times. Plan your meals and rides accordingly. If you have 20 minutes until a report time and you are waiting in a long line for a ride, you need get out of that line so you won’t be late. Wear sunscreen. You will be putting on a wool uniform whether you are sunburned or not. Figure out your shower schedule with the people in your hotel room. I recommend two people showering in the night and two in the morning. EVERYONE SHOWERS EVERY DAY! Things to Remember

  15. Things to Remember (Part Deux) • We are going to be on the bus for over 40 hours during this trip. WEAR DEODORANT EVERY DAY. • The restroom in the bus is just for show. • Sleep at night. You will need it. If someone in your room is being disruptive, notify Mr. Pack or Ms. Meyerson • YOU MUST drink lots of water and eat your meals. • Professionalism- From the moment we board the bus on Saturday until we arrive back home, we are representing our school and town. You will be polite to all teachers, parents, tour guides, clinicians, hotel employees and EACH OTHER.

  16. Things to Remember-Part Tres • We should not be able to hear individual conversations on the bus. • No PDA on the bus. • Every theme park will have a security checkpoint. If you take a purse or bag, it will be inspected. Do not take anything on this trip that anyone could consider a weapon! • We have two important performances where we expect absolute attention and musical execution. The rest of the time is yours to have fun. Everyone in performing has worked diligently for hours and deserves this opportunity.

  17. Everyone walks in groups of at least 2. No exceptions.

  18. Emergency number If an emergency arises during the trip, please contact the ETI company and they will contact me. This applies to people on the trip and family at home.The number is 1-800-654-4560

  19. School Work This trip is scheduled to take place over Spring Break. However, a possibility always exists that we might make up days over break. If this is the case, you will be required to meet with your other teachers BEFORE we leave for the trip to pick up your assignments. Do not use “I was in Florida” as an excuse for incomplete work.

  20. Frequently Asked Questions • Room Assignments • Cost • Bus Assignments • Movies • Food/drinks on bus • Behavior/Discipline • Room Checks • Security • Spending money • Any others??

  21. Cost • The rate that was quoted to us for 85 students, 4 chaperones and 2 directors was $880. • We are hoping to get several aspects of this trip sponsored by local businesses, though we be unable to accomplish this until we have an exact total number of students.

  22. Cost Breakdown of Certain Trip Aspects • Workshop is around $26 • Meal Coupon at Universal $13 (one time use) • Hotel breakfast for two mornings $4 each, $8 total per student • Dining cards would be $25 per person per day x 3 days= $75 per person • Bus is approximately $210 per student • Hotel is $30 per student per night (3 nights) $90 per student • Our goal is to reduce cost by $122 per student.
