SNOW DAYS
In case of snow, we will make every effort to call you to let you know if classes are cancelled put a message on the main phone number and the website. Please call your teacher before you leave for the lesson to be safe. Please be sure that your teacher has your phone number and that you have theirs.

In case of snow or teacher lessons a makeup lesson or credit will be given. In case of student absences, make up lessons will not be given. In the case of long-term illness or religious holidays, a leave of absence can be negotiated with the director.
