School Year Tuition Policies

Tuition is based on a 40 lesson school year session and is divided into monthly payments. August and June are half tuition and cover two weeks each. The payment for the remaining 36 weeks is divided equally between September and May, and accounts for four lessons each month. August Tuition is due on or before the first day of the school year session and the yearly registration fee is due September 1st or with new student registrations throughout the year. All other tuition payments are due by the 1st of each month.
Tuition may be mailed, dropped in the payment box, or automatically debited from a Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover charge card left on file.

Annual Registration Fee - $75 and due the first day of the school year session, or with new student registration.
