If you cancel a Class or Classes by giving us thirty (30) days’ written notice any fees paid for such Classes are fully refundable.
Missed Classes and Rescheduling
We require thirty-six (36) hours notice to reschedule any Classes, workshops and private music lessons and they can only be rescheduled if your teacher has openings (if we are not open please leave a message on the answering service or email so it can be time stamped).
If you provide 36 hours notice you will be added to your teacher’s make-up list and will receive an email with a list of open lesson times (this list will vary as you will need to take another student’s spot when they give notice that they will be away). If you choose not to make-up your lesson, you may receive a credit for the lesson, which you may use at a later date or gift to a third party. In the event that you gift your unused lesson, you must provide us with the name and contact information of the recipient. If you do not reschedule or gift your lessons within 30 days, we will cancel the lesson and the lesson will be forfeited.
In the event of an unavoidable absence by you, such as accident or illness (a doctor’s note required), a minimum of 24 hours notice must be given to the teacher, of the student’s inability to attend a lesson in order for a makeup lesson to be considered.
Any missed lesson time, if warranted, must be made up before the end of the school year (June 30). Missed lesson time can not be “banked” for credit and will not be rolled-over to the summer months.
If a lesson is cancelled by the teacher, it will be made up at a mutually convenient time for the student and the teacher. Check with your teacher regarding their studio policy about the number of makeup lessons allowed during the course of the school year.
In the event lessons are to be discontinued, 30 days notice in writing is required to be given to both the teacher and the office. Notification must be given on or before the first lesson of the month and the 30-day period will commence from the first lesson of the month. In lieu of 30 days notice, one month of fees is required. If a credit card refund is forthcoming, a processing fee of 10% of the remaining balance will be charged.
