Rates are $120-$150/month for one 30 minute lesson per week. These rates are based on the instructor's background, experience, and demand. Prices are subject to change but students are “locked in” to their respective rates until they decide to discontinue.
Payment for the entire month is due on or before the first lesson of the month. CMA accepts cash, check, or secure online payments via email invoice. Please make all checks payable to CAPSTONE MUSIC ACADEMY. All tuition payments are non-refundable but may be used as a credit where applicable.
There will be a $15 late fee applied to all payments received after the 15th of the month. Lessons will be subject to suspension if payment is not received after 30 days.
To receive a make-up lesson for a cancellation, you must give the instructor at least one week's notice in writing of original lesson time (text, email, etc.). All cancellations within a week of the original lesson time will not be made up and the lesson will be forfeited. There is a one make-up lesson limit per month and is arranged at the instructor's convenience. Any other cancellations during that month are forfeited. There are no makeups for group lessons, band clinics, and toddler classes.
There will be no make-up lessons given for Spring Break, Fall Break, Thanksgiving week (Mon-Wed) student cancellations. Lessons for those weeks will be forfeited if the student chooses to cancel.
In the event of mass cancellations such as weather days, there will be one designated make-up day scheduled at the instructor's convenience.
Lessons will not be given on the following holidays: New Year's Eve/Day, MLK Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving (Thursday and Friday), Christmas break. Since 5th lesson days are free, there are no refunds or make-ups for these holidays.
Notice of discontinuation must be given in writing (email, text, etc.) at least one month prior to student's termination. It is understood that the student is still enrolled until he/she notifies the instructor. Otherwise, the student will be charged for those lessons. All tuition payments are non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits given for students who quit mid-month.
Students agree to pay all collections, including, but not limited to, collection fees and attorney fees.
