Lesson Fee Payments
Half-hour lesson rates are paid monthly
to your instructor. The entire month's payments for lessons
is due at the first lesson of each month. Call 216-321-5868
for your instructor's cost. Below are tentative costs:
$60 - $80 for a 4 week month
$75 - $100 for a 5 week month
Absence Policy
Each student will be allowed three (3)
excused absences per school year (September 1st through May
31st) or two (2) if the student registers after January 1st.
If a Holiday lands on your actual lesson day, it will not count
as one of your excused lessons, and you will be excused. Because
studio time is being reserved for your child, any absences
beyond those allowed will be considered unexcused and the lesson
fees must be paid for those missed lessons. To
give notice of an absence, and be excused, students must dial
their instructor directly and give at least 24
hours notice. Please
do not leave your notice of absence at the school, as we cannot
guarantee we will reach the instructor. We suggest that you
keep copies of your instructor’s number handy at work,
car and home.
Summer: Students will be excused for family vacations and when
they go to camp. Students are welcome to take two lessons per week or hour lessons
in the summer as the teacher may be able to accommodate them. Former and current
students have felt this has been beneficial since they are not in school and
enjoy the time they have to practice.
Additional Information
Talking and cell phone use in the hallway
can be disruptive. Please be considerate and exercise restraint.
Do not block the drive way. Violators
will be towed at their expense.
