August News

Hello everyone! Welcome to the 2025 Fall Semester here at NSMA. I am excited to see everyone mid-August when the semester officially begins, below are some important dates and reminders for the upcoming fall semester.

No Lessons in early August: There will be no lessons held August 1-16.

2025 Fall Semester: The fall semester runs August 17 – December 19. All students registered for the fall semester must pay the August tuition invoice by August 10th to fully reserve the time slot.

Fall Recital: We will only be having a Winter Holiday Recital on Saturday December 6th. Due to scheduling conflicts with the church, we will not be able to have a Halloween Recital this fall. More information on the Winter Holiday Recital will be sent out in November.

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.

New Students: We have a wait list started for the 2025 Fall Semester! Please contact us at megan.e.felts@gmail.com or (907) 500-7455 for more information.
