WYSO 2024-2025 Letter of Agreement*

WYSO 2024-2025 Letter of Agreement for WYSO Ensembles

I. Attendance Policy
• WYSO allows only two (2) rehearsal absences per cycle (per semester).
Regardless of the reason for my absence, if I am absent for more than the allotted number of rehearsals during a given cycle, a meeting will be scheduled with my coach and the Chamber Music Program Director to discuss my future involvement in WYSO. The coach may dismiss me from performing in the respective concert if I have exceeded the allowed absences. WYSO reserves the right to dismiss a member due to lack of commitment as demonstrated by attendance.
• Attendance is required at all WYSO ensemble concerts in which you are expected to perform. An absence from a concert without reasonable excuse is probable cause for dismissal from the WYSO program.

II. Payment of Tuition (Abridged)
• I understand that payment of tuition should be completed by Friday, September 20, 2024. If this payment timetable does not fit my personal circumstances, I understand that I can set up a payment plan with WYSO prior to the first rehearsal in lieu of the above schedule.
• Any payment not made by its due date will incur a $50 late fee. Failure to pay the full balance of my tuition by April 2025 could preclude me from performing at the final concert.

2024-2025 WYSO Media Release*

2024-2025 media release:

Throughout the 2024-2025 concert season, musicians may be highlighted in efforts to promote the Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestras (WYSO) activities and achievements. For example, musicians may be featured in grant applications and/or increase public awareness of WYSO through newspapers, radio, TV, the web, DVDs, displays, brochures and other types of media.

• WYSO and its employees, representatives and authorized media organizations may print, photograph and record my child for use in audio, video, film, or any other electronic, digital and printed media.
• This is with the understanding that neither WYSO nor its representatives will reproduce said photograph, interview or likeness for any commercial value or receive monetary gain for use of any reproduction/broadcast of said photograph or likeness.
• Parents/Guardians will not receive monetary compensation for my child’s participation.

WYSO has implemented an “opt-out” media procedure. This means that unless your child has a signed Opt-Out Media Release Form on file, your child’s photo/image/interview may be used in any of the prior stated media capacities.

If you do not wish to give permission for your child to be included in materials used for the above purposes, please download and submit the Opt-Out Media Release Form in your WYSO portal (to obtain the form via email, please email wyso@wysomusic.org). You do not need to complete the Opt-Out Media Release form if you wish to allow your child to participate in promotional efforts.

I have read the 2024-2025 WYSO Media Release and understand the opt-out procedure.
