Answering commonly asked questions....
LATE FEES:
Tuition is due on the 15th of each month. There is also a one time $20 membership fee per student at the time of registration. Payments received after the 15th of the month will accrue a $20 late fee unless other arrangements have been made with the Executive Director and/or Bookkeeper.
UNDERSTANDING TUITION:
Payment September-May is pro-rated. That means that lesson rates are based on a 30-week lesson year divided into equal payments over 9 months (unless you opt to pay in full). The amount you pay does not change based on the amount of lessons you receive in a given month. You are paying to receive a set number of lessons between the time you register and the end of that time period. (For example, in the schoolyear Sept-May.) Your teacher is contractually obligated to provide you with a certain amount of lessons within the timeframe you register for. Once you are registered you can check your attendance on MyMusicStaff to track the number of lessons you have received and are still owed. If you register for lessons in September you receive 30 lesson opportunities by the end of May, if in October (27), November (24), December (20), January (16), February (13), March (10), April (6), May (4).
WHAT IF I GET ALL MY LESSONS IN EARLY? DO I STILL NEED TO PAY?
We intentially plan extra weeks into our schoolyear because weeks will happen where a teacher takes off or a student needs to miss.
We understand that life happens and perfect attendance over 9 months is rare. If you happen to finish early though, you will still be billed for May lessons because lessons are pro-rated and the number of lessons you received did not change.
