Hello everyone! Welcome to the 2024 Summer Semester here at NSMA. I’m looking forward to a fun summer of lessons with a more relaxed pace now that school is out for summer break! Below are some important dates and reminders for this month as well as looking ahead. Please take note!!

2024 Summer Semester: The Summer Semester begins Sunday May 26th and the Fall Semester begins Sunday August 18th.

NO LESSONS: Tuesday June 18th. Please see emails regarding optional rescheduling of lessons for that day.

NO LESSONS: Monday July 22nd through Monday July 29th. Please see emails regarding optional rescheduling of those lessons.

Fall 2024 Registration: Registration for the Fall 2024 Semester will open for continuing students on July 1st. Please be on the lookout for those emails!!

MASKS: Masks are now optional! As long as the student is healthy and free of symptoms, masks are optional. We ask that students who are sick with more than minor symptoms stay home (fever, bad cough, throwing up, etc.), students with minor symptoms of a cough or runny nose can attend lessons, but we do ask that they wear a mask while symptomatic.

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.
