FMM Policies
LESSON MISSED/FORFEITED & MAKE UP LESSONS:
Parents are ultimately responsible for ensuring that their child is reporting to his/her lesson prepared. Students should arrive on time for their lessons. If a student is late, the teacher will give a lesson in the time remaining.
If at all possible, lessons will be made up if they are missed due to student illness, teacher absence, or official changes in the daily school calendar (i.e. field trips, snow days). Make up lessons will be arranged by contacting your individual teacher.
Lessons missed for personal reasons (i.e. dental, optometrist, doctor appointments, family outings or vacations) will be forfeited.
As an alternate to forfeiting a lesson, parents/students may arrange to swap lesson times with another student with prior approval from the instructor. Please plan accordingly.
If a student forgets his instrument or lesson materials, he is still responsible for the full payment of the lesson and does not qualify for a makeup lesson.
Students missing lessons for sickness should notify the teacher in advance of the scheduled lesson time. If the teacher is not notified, the lesson will be forfeited.
Details for lessons missed due to long-term illness/injuries should be worked out with the private instructor.
Lessons may be discontinued for accounts that are not kept current.
