Two 6 week Summer Semesters (scheduled with your private teacher)

Summer A ~ June 1, 2009 through July 11, 2009

Summer B ~ July 12, 2009 through August 22, 2009

Tuition for the 6 week/30 minute private lessons in $216

There are no Violin and Cello Group Classes and Solfege Classes during the summer semesters.

If you are going to be out of town for a lesson or two, please speak to your private

teacher about scheduling two lessons a week on the weeks you are in town.

This needs to be scheduled BEFORE the semester begins.

 As you know if you have been with our school for several years, the summer is

a challenging time for scheduling, however our policy has not changed:

There is no make-up lesson if a student misses a lesson. If a teacher
misses a lesson, it will be rescheduled at your mutual convenience.

We are trying to make this work for everyone. It is our goal to make this musical journey a success for you and your child.
