September News

Hello everyone! We are officially on break here at NSMA for the months of September and October. Lessons will resume with our same fall schedule on November 4th. I will be checking in with everyone at the end of this month/beginning of October to see how everyone is progressing with their assignments and Winter Holiday Recital songs. If you have any questions regarding lessons, scheduling, practicing, or the recital, please don’t hesitate to email me at any time. I will be doing my best to respond to emails within 24-48 hours during this time. Below are a few reminders:

Return to Lessons: We will return to lessons on Saturday November 4th with the same schedule we started in August. If you are going to be traveling at all in November/December, please let me know ASAP and I will get that marked on my schedule. The normal cancelation policy will still apply (please see Studio Policies for details). Please have these dates marked on your calendars!!

Tuition is due the first lesson of every month with a grace period until the 10th of the month, there is a $25.00 late fee for tuition received after the 10th of the month.
