Individual Lessons
Students enrolled in individual lessons are permitted one excused absence per month. For a missed lesson to be “excused” the student/parent must notify the school in writing (email is permissible) by the close of business the day before the scheduled lesson. An excused lesson qualifies for a make-up lesson, not a refund. Make-up lessons must be scheduled within 30 days of the original lesson date. B2R cannot guarantee that make-up lessons will be taught by the student’s regular instructor. There will be no make-ups or refunds for absences without proper notification.
Rock Band Sessions and Glee Club
There will be no make-ups of or refunds for band sessions missed by individual students. Absences from band sessions alter the balance of the group and make rehearsals difficult for those students who are in attendance. Students are asked to recognize that they have an obligation to their fellow band members and should make every effort to attend all
scheduled sessions. If at least half the students are present for a band session, it will proceed as scheduled. If fewer than half the students are available for a band session, it can be rescheduled with at least 24 hours written notice.
Group Classes, Recording Arts
No make-up classes or refunds will be given if a student is absent for a group class, Recording Arts or B2R Glee Club. If B2R cancels a class prior to the first day of instruction, a full refund will be given.
Early Childhood Education Classes
Parents may make up a missed Early Childhood Education class by taking their child to another regularly scheduled class session at a different day/time during the course of the semester (space permitting). No other make-up or refunds are available. If B2R cancels a class for the semester prior to the first day of instruction, a full refund will be given.
B2R Camps
There will be no make-up sessions or refunds for students enrolled in B2R Camps that miss camp time. If B2R has to cancel a camp prior to the first day of instruction, a full refund will be given.
B2R Studios
The student/parent must notify the school in writing (email is permissible) by the close of business the day before the scheduled session to cancel or reschedule a session. Otherwise, no refund will be given.
Withdrawals and Refunds
Students are considered registered for the duration of their programs until B2R receives a written request to withdraw. The student will then be removed from the auto renew for the following month going forward. No refunds will be made for B2R Camps, B2R Studios or other classes,including deposits on B2R Birthday Parties.
Teacher Attendance
B2R prides itself in recruiting accomplished musicians who perform professionally. While this allows us to assure a highly talented faculty, occasionally teachers may be absent due to their performance schedules or for other reasons. If this occurs, B2R will arrange for a substitute teacher and the student’s instruction will continue as scheduled. If a substitute teacher is not available, B2R may reschedule the lesson.
