Health & Safety

Students, Parents and Staff

The health and safety or our students, parents and staff’s are our top priority while ensuring the best learning environment possible.

Illness Policy

Simple and straight forward.

If you think you are coming down with something, sick, not feeling well….stay at home.  We can either schedule your lessons via Zoom for the same day or different day.  Alternatively, we can also send you your weekly lesson plan through our lesson software program and include follow-along videos, PDF’s and audio examples.

Please use the contact form to inform us of your absence.

UPDATE

Currently all staff and students past the age of 9 are required to wear a mask during in-person lessons.

In-Person Lessons

We ask that once students arrive to lessons, please wait in your vehicle and your instructor will wave you in once ready.  You will be required to use hand sanitizer or wash your hands before entering the classroom.

In-Home Lessons

Students and staff are required to wear masks as mandated.  For piano lessons, if instructor requires to use your piano/keyboard for demonstration, they will need to use Lysol whips before demonstrating, and after.  For string instruments, the instructor will bring their own.

If anyone in the household is not feeling well, you are required to inform us to we can make alternate lesson arrangements.
