Materials Fee
A material fee of $25 is charged above the tuition fee for all new Summer students. This fee is due by July 1, 2024. . All music and other material purchased for a student during the summer will be debited from this amount. If the balance falls below $0 an invoice will be sent for the owed amount. This fee is non-refundable and there is no refund for this fee if the child withdraws from lessons. It is expected that students purchase music books that are part of the curriculum. If you are purchasing the book through the studio, you will be billed for the book as well as the shipping fee and any required sales taxes. Borrowed music from the studio shall be returned by the next week or student is charged for the replacement of the book.

Missed Lessons
Because specific times are set a side for specific students, a student who does not attend a lesson will simply miss the benefit of that lesson. There are no makeups. No make ups will be given if a student misses a lesson for going on vacation, scheduling a medical appointment during the scheduled lesson time or for other events during the school year. Piano lessons are an important part of the schedule. If a family chooses to make a sport commitment more important the lesson is forfeit.
If you wish to swap your time with another student, this is possible assuming another student is willing to swap that week. Contact Mrs. Johansen at least one week in advance if you wish to swap a lesson time. There is no guarantee that a student will be willing to swap.

Lesson Time Policy
If a student is late to their lesson, the lesson begins at the appointed time and ends at the appointed time. Lessons cannot go overtime to accommodate a late student. If the student is more than 15 minutes late, it is considered a missed lesson and the student will be charged. If Mrs. Johansen is not present at the studio for a scheduled lesson time, the student is expected to wait for 15 minutes before leaving the studio. The lesson will then be made up at a later date (not included as a make up as stated above). If Mrs. Johansen arrives within the 15 minute grace period, then the lesson time will be adjusted or the time will be made up at a later date, depending on everyone’s schedule
