MISSED LESSONS
We want each student to experience the excitement of progress from week to a week-the key to that is consistent practice and consistent attendance. The school’s missed lessons policy requires that you give your instructor a notice by 10 pm. before your scheduled session. Once the instructor receives such a notification, the student’s absence will be marked excused.
Three excused absences for students taking one lesson a week and six excused absences for students taking two classes a week are allowed during the entire school year.
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 at the earliest convenience in addition to the allowed make-up lessons limit as well.
As a courtesy to our students enrolled in schools outside of district 64, we will provide additional make-up lessons for August 22-28 if students are out of town the week of August 22-28, 2022.
