MISSED LESSONS

At our school, we value your progress and believe consistent practice and attendance are the keys to your success. Our missed lessons policy underscores this belief, requiring you to notify your instructor at least one day before your scheduled session. This notification will excuse your absence, allowing you to maintain your progress. If your child gets sick on the day of the lesson, please try to notify your instructor at least 3 hours before the start of the lesson so that the missed lesson can be marked as an excused absence.

For students attending one lesson a week, we allow a maximum of three excused absences throughout the school year. The allowance for those taking two classes a week is six excused absences. These guidelines are designed to balance your learning needs with the importance of regular attendance.
Students can make up missed classes during the make-up session at the end of the School Year.

Your instructors will make up the lessons that fall on either Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, or Memorial Day, in addition to the allowed number of make-up classes.

If your instructor cancels your lesson, they will make up the canceled class as soon as possible, in addition to the allowed make-up lesson limit.

During the Summer Semester, the number of make-up lessons is limited to two per semester for students taking one lesson a week and four for students taking lessons twice a week.

As a courtesy to our students in schools outside District 64, we will provide additional make-up lessons for August 19-25, 2024, if students are out of town during the first week of classes.

We do not offer credits or refunds for missed lessons.
