SEMESTER SCHEDULE
Classes are organized into three semesters - Fall/Winter, Spring and Summer
Fall Semester - Begins roughly mid-September and ends roughly mid-January (see current schedule for exact dates)
Spring Semester - Begins roughly the beginning of February through roughly the end of May (see current schedule for exact dates)
Both Fall and Spring Semesters are guaranteed 12 weeks of lessons, with a few extra in case of snow days/teacher illness.
Summer Term - Varies by year. Flexibility is built in. For example, students can choose to attend 4, 6 or 8 lessons from a set of available weeks on the calendar.
WEEKLY SCHEDULING
Students will be assigned a weekly 'home' class day and time; the lesson schedule can be viewed through the student portal. Any necessary rescheduling may also be done through the portal.
ATTENDANCE
Tuition is not pro-rated for missed lessons, but it's possible to attend class multiple times per week if necessary. In addition, video exchange with the teacher, texting and email are always available.
*PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND LESSONS IF YOU ARE SICK OR CONTAGIOUS*
Instead, make use of video exchanges, texting and emailing to get extra work or feedback from your teacher, or come twice during a week once you are well. Remember also that each semester has 2-3 'bonus' lessons built in.
ARRIVING/PARKING
Park on either side of the driveway. Please do not block the circle drive. During the dry months, it's okay to park on the strip of grass on the north side of my property.
