All tuition is to be paid on the first week’s lesson of each calendar month.

Tuition rates will be flexible only during these school breaks and Hallmark holidays:

Fall, Spring & Summer Breaks, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years,

Memorial Day, and Labor Day.

Students of GSMS participating in sports and other extracurricular functions should make arrangements with their instructor if they require altering time and day slots. We always strive to work with our students’ schedules and support them beyond their musical goals.

Cancellations:

A 24 -hour cancellation period is enforced to allow teachers to schedule make-up lessons. Failure to give a 24-hour notice can forfeit your lesson with no make-up lesson.

Cancelled lessons are to be made-up during that month's period. If a student cancels, then make-ups are at the discretion of the instructor. GSMS does not base cancellations with public school cancellations during inclement weather conditions. Call your individual instructor when regarding weather conditions.

Communication:

Maintain contact with your instructor about any missed lessons.

Good communication and respect for the instructor and his/her time is essential in making a commitment to a lesson time. Be clear about cancellations in order to maintain your place on the instructor’s roster.

Changing Lesson Times or Stopping Lessons:

You are responsible for your time slot until you give clear notice to Grand Staff Music School of your intent to stop. A 2-week advance notice of intent to stop lessons or change lesson times is required. Your $60 deposit will be applied to your final 2 week's lessons.

Our mission is to provide students with the best available instructors that know how to kindle a passion for music, and encourage the commitment to succeed with the instrument of choice. We strive for excellence in a positive and fun atmosphere, and value each student’s individuality.

We thank you for your participation in our services. By signing the student information/registration form, you are agreeing to the terms stated above. You are agreeing to pay for all lessons in the scheduled time frame unless canceled by your instructor.
