Missed Lessons and Tardiness
Consistency and commitment are the keys to developing and mastering any endeavor, including music. Therefore, students are expected to attend every music lesson in order to advance their skills. If a student must miss a lesson, please contact Kathryn Grabowski no later than forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the scheduled lesson day. Make-up lessons may be scheduled on a case-by-case basis.

Please note that your failure to notify AANM at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of an anticipated absence will result in no refund and the music lesson will not be rescheduled. Any tardiness of ten (10) minutes or more without notification may result in a missed lesson with no refund or rescheduling.

Weather Cancellations
AANM does not follow the public school open/close schedule. If you have questions regarding lesson cancellations due to inclement weather, please contact Kathryn Grabowski via email at kgrabowski “at” accesscommunity.org.
