Scheduling:
●Lessons are scheduled on a weekly basis for the same time and day each week. Lessons cannot be scheduled bi-weekly.
●Rescheduling is not allowed for any reason unless the teacher is at fault for the lesson's cancellation or in the event of extreme weather (ex. hurricane, iced roads, or mandatory evacuations) it is up to the teachers discretion.
●Notice of absence is required to avoid a NO CALL NO SHOW fee of $10. A minimum of 1 hour notice is required.
●In the event a student is running late to lessons, notify the teacher immediately and give an ETA.
●If a teacher is unable to attend lessons for any reason they will get the lesson rescheduled as quickly as possible and contact the student(s) involved.
●Teachers will only offer two reschedule date options. If students are unable to make either date work the lessons will not be rescheduled.
●If the student cancels a rescheduled lesson it will not be moved to a different date.
●Lessons will never be scheduled on any major holidays: Easter, July 4th, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, or New Year's Day.
●Students should attend lessons regularly. Students that are tardy, absent, or miss long periods of time regularly may be removed from the schedule. Any students unable or unwilling to comply with all rules regarding scheduling will be removed from the schedule and barred from attending lessons with other teachers.
Expectations:
●Students should arrive 5 minutes early to all lessons.
●Students are required to bring necessary materials and equipment to all lessons. Failure to do so may result in the cancellation of the lesson without rescheduling.

●Students are expected to keep good attitudes for the duration of all lessons.
●If a student damages, scratches, or destroys a teacher's instrument, book, piece of furniture, or any other property, they are required to pay the cost of damage.
