POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

 REGISTRATION:

A non-refundable fee of $25 per family is required yearly.  Withdrawal and re-enrollment within the same year will generate an additional registration fee.

 PAYMENT OF TUITION:

Tuition is taken out of your checking account on a monthly basis using Auto-pay, a streamlined system of auto-debit.  There are two Auto-pay options from which to choose

Option 1:  Tuition is pulled from the account on the 5th of every month

Option 2:  Tuition is pulled from the account on the 15th of every month

 DRESS CODE:

Students not following the dress code may be asked to sit out during class.

 COMMITMENT:

We agree that youth needs to be held accountable for their behavior and choices.  However, we require that parents not withhold studio classes and especially performances as a consequence for behavior, poor grades or choices.  Doing so punishes the teacher and the entire class and is not acceptable.

 OBSERVATION:

Parents, relatives and friends may not enter any classroom during instructional time unless invited by the teacher.

 WITHDRAWAL:

30 days notice must be given to discontinue any lessons. This notice must be given by the 5th of the month that is to be the student’s last month of instruction.  Otherwise, that month’s tuition is due upon withdrawal.  Withdrawal from lessons before the end of the year showcase forfeits all costumes purchased for the end of the year showcase, plus the reserve month’s payment, if applicable.  Costuming will become the property of Crescendo Performing Arts Academy if a student withdraws from lessons before the Showcase.  No costume refund will be offered.  To withdraw from classes a parent or adult student must:

1.       Inform studio administration in person during the first week of the student’s last month of classes.

2.       Complete and sign a withdrawal form provided by the studio. 

Withdrawals require a signature and cannot be accepted over the phone or through email.   If proper withdrawal procedures are not followed, the parent or adult student will be responsible for the monthly payment of tuition until the proper procedures are followed.

 MISSED CLASSES AND MAKE-UP CLASSES:

No make-up lessons will be given for students who miss class.  If the studio cancels a class, a make-up lesson will be offered or a pro-rated credit will be applied to the following month’s tuition.  Please notify the studio if you are going to be absent from class for any reason.  Students who miss more than two classes in a row will be required to take a private lesson(s) in order to catch up with the rest of their class.  Absences during the months of May and June may eliminate a student from participation in the annual showcase.  In that instance, no refunds will be given for tuition or costuming.  If a student is the only registered student who shows up for a class, the teacher will give that student a ½ hour private lesson instead of the full length class.

 PRIVATE LESSONS:

Private lessons must be scheduled through the front desk.  Private lessons must be paid for on a monthly basis. 

Missed Lessons and Make–up Lessons:  A maximum of four make up lessons are allowed per student for the year.  Make-up lessons will be given only if the original lesson is canceled by 8:00pm the day before your lesson was to be given.  Calling the studio and leaving a message the day of your lesson does not meet the cancellation requirement.
