Private music lessons for children and adults in Juneau, Alaska
November 1st, 2016
Hello everyone! We had an exceptional Halloween Recital last week – I think it was the most well-prepared recital we’ve ever had! I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope everyone else did, too. We have a busy next month and a half as we go into the holiday season, here are some important updates and reminders!
Thanksgiving Week: We DO have lessons during the week of Thanksgiving!! Please mark that on your calendars. If you/your student will miss a lesson, the normal cancelation policy does still apply, so please let me know as soon as possible.
Winter Holiday Recital: Our fifth annual Winter Holiday Recital will be held on Sunday December 18th at 3:00pm at Aldersgate Church. There is a $10.00 per student fee to participate. This week I will be handing out registration letters (also available for download through the Current Students/Documents tabs) – please email me by Nov. 20th to register you/your student for the recital!
Winter Break: There will be no lessons held Thursday 12/22 through Sunday 1/8. Lessons will resume as normal Monday 1/9. I do often have shifting in my schedule between the fall and spring semesters, so if you are interested in making any changes to lessons, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can best accommodate any requests.
Fall Business Hours: Sat/Sun 12:00-7:00, Mon/Tue 1:00-7:00, Wed 3:00-7:00, closed Thur/Fri. Hours are posted on the front door, please do not come up to the house if it is not during the posted business hours.
Tuition Payment Reminder:Â Tuition Payments are due 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 your payment with your student at lesson, send the payment in the mail or you can drop it off anytime in the secure white drop box attached to the mailbox. Please do not come up to the house to drop off payment if it is not during your student's lesson time. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
New Students: If you are a potential new student and are interested in lessons, I have only one opening available for new students! I also have a wait list started, please contact me at megan.e.felts@gmail.com for more information on NSMA and how to sign up for lessons or for the wait list.
