CANCELLATIONS 

There will be no refunds or credits given for cancellations or missed lessons. If the student arrives at lessons and they are sick, the student will be dismissed. If the student arrives more than 10 minutes late for their lesson, the instructor reserves the right to cancel the lesson. 

ILLNESS

If your child has a fever, vomiting, rash, sore throat, cough, and/or other contagious symptoms within 24 hours before class, please stay home and rest.   Your child must be symptom-free at least 24 hours before their scheduled lesson.

WEATHER 

If winter road conditions make it impossible to get to the studio, we will notify students in the morning. Otherwise, use your best judgment when deciding to travel.

PREPARATION & MATERIALS

Students are expected to come to their lessons prepared. This will mean different things for each student. This will always include coming to lessons with all of their materials including assigned music and a pencil. In the rare case that a student leaves their music behind or does not complete the preparation asked, the instructor reserves the right to end the lesson early.

Parents: 

There is a sitting area outside of the studio. You are welcome to sit there during your child’s lesson. Siblings are also welcome to sit in the sitting area. However, we ask that the noise level be kept as low as possible while lessons are taking place and that visitors keep to the sitting room area and do not wander through the rest of the house. There is also plenty of outside space for siblings to play. I ask that children stay out of the barn and other buildings on the property and must be under the direct supervision of parents at all times.

CONTACT INFORMATION

It is very important that we have updated contact information for each student. Please provide your instructor with an updated telephone number and an email address.
