Students are asked to wait until their scheduled lesson time before
entering the building. Being too early can be distracting to students
with a lesson in progress.
Piano and vocal students can enter the building (ring the bell front door) about 1 minute
before their scheduled lesson; ring the door bell before coming
inside, and go downstairs to the lesson studio, have a seat and wait quietly as the lesson in progress is ending.
Guitar Lessons - enter at the driveway entrance (at bottom of drive
where recording studio entrance is located) no more than one minute before SCHEDULED
LESSON TIME. (Please wait until lesson time if you arrive early
before coming inside).
SHOES OFF policy -- when entering the building shoes can be removed.
Please remove wet shoes once inside and before going entering the lesson
studio.
PLEASE CLOSE THE DOOR -- Please make sure the DOOR IS CLOSED all the way once you enter the
building for energy efficiency and conservation (both heat and air
conditioning). Please refrain from opening the door until
physically leaving the building.
Student Drop Off-Pick Up
Parents (and siblings) are welcome to quietly wait in the lesson studio
sitting area while the student has his/her lesson. There is WiFi
for computers, and family members/friends waiting are welcome to quietly read
or observe while lesson is in session.
Parents with young beginning students (5-7 years) are advised to stay
during the lesson and to observe the first few (or more) lessons.
For older students, parents often drop off the student for his/her lesson
while running errands. Please return on time to pick up your child at
the end of the lesson. If waiting outside, we ask to please refrain from
running gas car engine, and to come inside and wait if weather is too hot or
cold to be comfortable while waiting in your vehicle.
Summer Lesson Schedules
Students are encouraged to continue lessons
throughout the summer months, and the 12 month plan offers a discount for
students who take lessons year round.
There is flexibility to schedule around vacation times and summer camps.
Weekly lesson times can also be changed to a different time than when scheduled during the
school year for school age students.
Students who continue through the summer get first choice for scheduling
time in the fall when a new school year starts, and can receive up to 4 in-home
lessons during the year.
AGREEMENTS
12 Month Agreement
I agree to attend
Music lessons throughout the entire calendar year, from the time first
starting lessons. I understand that I receive a discounted monthly tuition rate.
Payments:
Automatic payments are processed the same week monthly from the time I
enroll.
Scheduling:
Lessons are scheduled the same day and time each week. I understand the
student/parent is expected to remember scheduled lessons.
Make-Up lessons:
24-hour notice is required for canceling a lesson in order to be guaranteed
a makeup lesson. In the event of illness or emergency,
a makeup lesson can be arranged the same week or as the teacher’s schedule
allows. Outside of illness, makeup lessons cannot be guaranteed
without 24 hour notice.
For students signed up for the 12 month plan, up to 2-4 makeup lessons in
your home are offered (depends on availability and normally take place
during summer months.)
Teacher
Cancellations: When a teacher
must cancel a lesson, makeup lessons are scheduled (no refunds).
Lesson Reminders:
Reminders for rescheduled lessons in the event of holidays or other makeup
lessons are sent by cell-text. Reminders are not sent weekly for regularly
scheduled lessons.
Stopping Lessons:
I understand that one month’s notice and payment is required for ending
lessons (ie to stop lessons in January, give notice in December when last
tuition payment is made). If I decide to stop lessons before the 12 month cycle, I agree
that I’ll pay the remainder of the rate for months attended.
NEW STUDENTS!! A
complimentary 3 month trial at $112. If you stop lessons after 3
months, no additional charge. If you continue lessons after 3 months,
you agree to fulfill the 12 month cycle. If you decide to stop lessons
before 12 months you'll pay the remainder of the rate based on number
of months less trial period.
