M.A.M.A. Reminder
Enrollment Deadline is This Friday
M.A.M.A. Enrollment and Fee Deadline
This coming Friday, April 20, 2018, is the deadline to receive the enrollment fees for the Mid America Music Association (M.A.M.A.) Summer Music Festival. I have sent the sheets home with the students containing the festival details and the fees due for your child's enrollment. If you want to enroll your child(ren), then I must be contacted this week and receive the fees and schedule preferences. Please understand, I cannot front the fees for any students. If special arrangements need to be made then, please contact me ASAP.
M.A.M.A. will be held in St. Louis, MO on July 27 - 29, 2018, at the Airport Marriott Hotel. At this point, the studio has 25 Piano Solo Division entries and 11 Competitive Division enrollments.
In the case of any one wanting their child(ren) to participate but had not yet talked to me, please do so as soon as you can....as long as we get the enrollment in, there is still plenty of time to select music and start working toward this goal.

Policy Note For Summer re. Absences and/or Breaks
As has been in the studio policy statement for the life of this studio, and agreed to by each family, it is stated that the studio is a year-round entity and that each monthly tuition payment is NOT for the number of lessons in any given month but is an installment for the tuition based on a 40-lesson year. Extended absences or long vacations do not stop tuition. If a student family leaves their scheduled lesson time unpaid, I will be forced to fill that time with a new student who is on the waiting list and cannot accept the absent student back onto the schedule. I am always so appreciative of my student families' actions to respect that policy. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please contact me so that we can discuss it. Many thanks!!!
