MISSED LESSONS:
Student initiated cancellations: If you need to reschedule a lesson I must be notified by 9 a.m. on the morning on the lesson. Call me on my cell phone or e-mail me. I will do my best to trade your lesson time with another student or arrange a make-up lesson. Without the required advance notice, the lesson will not be rescheduled and tuition payment will be expected.
Teacher initiated cancellations: Because of my professional and family obligations, it may become necessary for me to reschedule a lesson. If so, I will inform you as soon as I am aware of the situation. We will work together to find a convenient make-up lesson time.

PREPARATION:
Home practice is essential for musical development. In order for progress to be made, students are expected to prepare for each lesson.

PERFORMANCES:
The Spring Recital is planned for May 19 at St. Andrew Cumberland Presbyterian Church
