January 15, 2026: Thursday Disneyland information guidelines 

ATTIRE: Comfortable non-offensive clothes, dress for the weather.  If you don't understand this means just wear your school uniform.  All students travel via bus & go around the park in groups.

​

6:19am Arrive at Chaminade Middle School

6:21am in your seat with your Student ID - follow instructions to LOAD & Leave bus Chaminade MS (same seat both ways)
We don't need to bring instruments for this years clinic
6:27 start loading the Band Vehicle - Listen for zone for loading

​

Check in points in person are imperative.  Do not be late, and have your whole group visible in front of Ms. Snyder.  If missing someone, come to the check in point anyway.  I need to see everyone's face & make sure each student hears all instructions.  Late students guarantees putting things away upon return to make sure everything is put away properly.

​

Suggestion:  Have your group write down everyone's first choice of Disney ride, then consult map to make a path to hit everyone's ride.  Choose fast passes for rides with longest lines.  If everyone doesn't respect each other, there will be problems, crying, phone calls accompanied by lack of fun.

p

​8-9:00 am exit bus  Please respect security. It is a serious checkpoint.

Bring only what you can afford to lose.  Phones are for taking photos, using the heads up app by one person to play with the group, and one person with a disney app if you need it although it may slow you down.  No video games, no being on the phone during eating.  You will be given time to upload photos to NADE squad.  No social media during the day.  We are going to the park to make memories.  UPLOAD Disney Photos that you would like possibly posted on NADE Squad or shared.

Meet at Lego store to use the bathroom and disperse tickets

9:14 Choir is meeting at the flower Mickey head at the entrance of the park.

 

12:33pm Band is meeting at Tomorrowland Alien Pizza Port - we will check in (IN PERSON) and eat and then head to the flower Mickey head at the entrance of the park.

​

1:45-3:45pm  Band in Clinic where we experience music and storytelling (No pictures behind the scenes, no recording during the work session) We can take pictures when we are on stage.  After the clinic we will all return to being able to go on rides in Disneyland

Rules for a fun day @ Disneyland
Check In:  Any group missing a check point IN PERSON will stay after upon return.  
Bathroom:  Never separate from group, never go alone.  
Rides:  Never separate, take last escape point if not riding, & wait at other side of ride.
Eating:  Never separate from group.  Wait in line together and then go to another place together if you don't want to eat the same thing.  Tomorrowland has the widest selection with food all in the same area and COMMUNICATE with your group if you feel a place is too crowded.
Phone & Battery:  Reception is never the same in different locations.  Be prepared for your battery to drain much quicker than normally.  Have a power bank with a full charge & a charging cord.  (consider Low battery mode, brightness down) No videos or social media during the day.  Phones are for taking pictures, the disney app and one person using it for "heads up."
If Lost:  Go to Magic Castle and text your group which includes me - those passing castle temporarily adopt the lost one.  To avoid getting lost or separated always keep one person in your group in your sight.  Get each others numbers if you are able to text each other.  Once separated it is very hard to find each other.
Stay off each other.  You'll end up fighting.  Discovering everyone's personal bubble of space is different.  No one wants to be annoyed at Disneyland.  Be respectful.  Communicate with words.

​

6:43pm - 7:16pm SHOP - You have about 30 minutes to buy a last minute item & get stuff from locker with a buddy.  
Stay with group/buddy, check in, use restroom with a buddy.  Don't wander off alone even after checking in.
7:17pm -  7:43pm eat (pretzel or something)

7:37 - 7:47 pm   Meet at Lego store (Downtown Disney) to use the bathroom and get ready to leave.

We will go as one group to the bus at Downtown Disney.  LATE CHILDREN PAY LATE BUS FEES  $110.00  Being late is a major safety issue.
 

8:00 pm Bus leaving We plan to return to school by 9:23 pm. Students staying after for 20 minutes are selected based on trip behavior, tardiness, absences & no communication. 
9:26 pm Arrive @ Chaminade MS unless a child is late to the bus.  LATE CHILDREN PAY LATE BUS FEES  $110.00
