Students are expected to arrive at the school at least 5 minutes prior to his/her lesson to facilitate a smooth transition between lessons.
TWO excused absences are allowed per semester with sufficient time of notification before a scheduled lesson. Cancellations made on the day of the lesson will not be refunded. Please notify the school accordingly (see chart)

Make-up lessons for the TWO excused lessons will be scheduled typically at the end of the semester. Students will not be arranged make-up lessons and will not receive refunds for any absences after exceeding two excused absences.
Please be on time for scheduled lessons. There will be no make-up time for being late or leaving early.
Make-up lessons will be arranged by the school based on the availability of the teacher and classroom facilities. Make-up lessons canceled by the student cannot be rescheduled or refunded.
All make-up lessons will be expired after the last day of the semester. No further make-ups or refunds will be made.
If a teacher cancels a lesson or the school is closed due to an emergency, individual lessons will be rescheduled for the student.
Song of Songs encourages students to attend all lessons as scheduled, since students are better able to keep focused and stay on course with their musical studies when they are spending consistent, quality time in the classroom.
