Make-Up Lessons

Make-up lessons will be made at the discretion of the teacher. Lessons missed by the teacher will be made up as the teacher's schedule permits. Students anticipating an absence should talk to their teacher early on so an effort can be made to give the student another time. For cancellations due to inclement weather, every effort will be made to reschedule lessons.


Student Expectations

Academy students are expected to keep regular practice routines as outlined by their instructor. Each player should come prepared and with all materials needed for lessons, classes, rehearsals and recitals. The Academy reserves the right to discontinue lessons if the student shows poor attitude of insufficient progress. Students should be willing to perform on recitals of other classes when asked by their teacher.


Scholarships

Need-based scholarships are made possible this year by a grant from The Kind World Foundation and Unnamed Foundation. We willingly provide instruction for all students with the desire to learn!
