2011/12 School Year:
Tuition is $285 per semester or $215 for those schools participating in shorter 10-wk sessions. Although this may seem like alot at first, it actually breaks down to about $10 a lesson! In addition, at the time of sign-up at each school, students pay a $50 registration/materials fee (non-refundable) to cover music books, string replacements, administrative overhead costs, etc. 10-wk students pay $15 per session(included in overall tuition payment) See below for exact Terms of Tuition
2012 2nd Semester
Tuition Terms
Each parent signs a tuition agreement outlining the following guidelines:Tuition covers 28 lessons over the course of the semester or 20 lessons per 10-wk session.
There are no official make-ups for field trips, illness or any other reason an absence may be incurred by your child, although at some schools it is possible to attend another class as a make-up if one is offered at the same level. We also offer ongoing classes at the Elston Ave. office/studio location
Refunds are provided only if a child discontinues within 30 days of the start date of the first lesson of the semester. If your child misses more than two weeks of lessons in a row due to illness/injury, you will receive a credit for the number of lessons missed (past two) that you had already paid for (unless other classes are available to attend to make up those missed lessons.)
There are make-up days built into the schedule should a teacher become ill, or for snow days, etc. to ensure each child receives the correct number of lessons
Regular lesson times may be changed and/or extra lessons added preceding each concert performance.
