Hello everyone! Winter is here and I’m sure we’re all bustling about getting ready for the holidays. We have a short, jam-packed month here at NSMA. Below are the highlights for December.

Winter Holiday Recital: Our fifth annual Winter Holiday Recital will be held on Sunday Dec. 18th at 3:00pm at Aldersgate Church. All students participating should be registered, all are welcome to come and watch as audience members! There will be no lessons held on that recital day. Please contact me asap with any questions you might have.

Winter Break: There will be NO LESSONS Thursday 12/22 – Sunday 1/8. Lessons resume at our normal schedule on Monday 1/9.

Scheduling: If you/your student is interested in a different day/time for lessons, Winter Break is the time to contact me regarding requesting scheduling changes for the spring semester!

Tuition Payment Reminder: 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.
