Hello everyone! We’re now in the full swing of our Fall Semester here at NSMA. Congratulations to everyone who participated in our Halloween Recital, you all did a great job!! Below are some important reminders for this month as well as the rest of the fall, please read through this newsletter carefully and mark any dates on your calendars!
YES to Lessons: There ARE lessons on ALL Sunday and Monday holidays, as well as all teacher in-service and parent/teacher conference days. We DO have lessons on Veteran’s Day 11/11. Please do not assume we have any one-day holidays off from lessons – if you are unsure, please contact me to inquire. Please mark your calendars accordingly.
No Lessons on These Dates: Wednesday November 25 – Sunday November 29 for Thanksgiving and Friday December 18 – Saturday January 2 for Winter Break.
Winter Holiday Recital: The second recital of the 2026/27 school year will be our annual Winter Holiday Recital on Saturday December 12th 3:00-5:00pm at Chapel by the Lake Church. There is a $15.00 per student participation fee. All students are encouraged to participate, but it is not mandatory. Students are encouraged to dress in holiday colors and accessories!!
Tuition Payment Reminder: Tuition payments are due at the first lesson of every month with a grace period until the 10th of the month. If tuition is received after the 10th of the month, a $25.00 late fee will be assessed. Please drop off physical payments with your student at lesson, send in the mail or you can drop it off any time in the secure white drop box attached to the studio entrance. Please do not come up to the studio to drop off payment if it is not your student’s lesson time, and please do not come up to the main house for any reason. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
