Music Lessons Policy
**Music Lesson Cancellation & Make Up Policy
– Because our Teaching Artists require multiple lessons a day in order for LILA to reserve their time, students who do not show up to their lesson without giving 24 hours notice will not be eligible for refunds or make-up sessions.
– If the lesson is canceled by the school, a make-up session will be offered the week of January 22, 2024.
– If your child must miss a session and gives at least 24 hours advance notice, a make-up session may be scheduled for a different day if the instructor has availability.
Makeup Classes
The week of Monday, January 22 – Friday, January 26 will be reserved for makeup classes. These classes will take place only in the event an entire class was canceled for the day and are not meant to compensate for individual absences. In the event that more than one class is canceled during the season, a prorated refund will be given only if fewer than 13 sessions are completed.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact the After-school Activities and Vacation Camps Manager at afterschool-activities@lilaschool.com.
Registration for Semester 1 is now closed. Please check back regularly for detailed information and links to Register for Semester 2.
Monday
– Empowered to advocate for themselves, Master Crittenden’s accessible teaching style makes Tang Soo Do available to everyone, regardless of skill level. At the end of the day, we want our students to want to train. There’s nothing worse than spending money and time on an activity, only to fight them to get in the car. We hope to help with that by making every class an enjoyable and memorable experience.
