However, we encourage you to stand away from the viewing window since it tends to distract the students in class. The observation window may be closed at anytime. If at any point in time, you feel out of touch with the progress of your child, please schedule a convenient time to talk with your child’s instructor. We are very willing to discuss the direction in which your child’s instruction is headed. ABSENCES Students are encouraged not to be late or absent. Class attendance is always imperative for the students’ progress. • If your child will not be able to attend class, please contact the studio office (746-8009) and leave a message or inform the class instructor in advance. • Missed classes must be made up within 14 days. The office can help you select the appropriate class for make-ups. • Excessive absence from weekly classes may require a student to be moved to a lower level class or dismissed. • NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS WILL BE GRANTED FOR MISSED LESSONS OR FOR LESSONS DROPPED DURING A CURRENT MONTH. |
