• Re-Enrollment Fee: Students who take two or more months off from lessons are subject to pay a deposit of half of 1 month's price to secure their spot for when they return. 

INVOICES AND PAYMENT

Invoices are posted to your account 1 week before the first of the month and processed on the first of each month. Payments can be processed on a different day if you let us know. If you wish to pay via ACH transfer rather than Credit/Debit Card, we will help you get that set up. We can also accept cash, checks (made out to Seckman Music School), and Venmo with the QR code in the school or our username, @SeckmanMusic. 

A $50 late fee is charged to the account for payments made after the 7th of the month.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

We are willing to work with families who may not be able to afford the full price of our classes and lessons. Please contact us directly if you are needing assistance. Options available are lowering class costs, payment plans, or finding outside grants/scholarships to help cover costs. Families on financial assistance will have the following fees reduced by half: Annual Enrollment Fee and Re-Enrollment Fee. (Late Payment Fee will not count for financial assistance). 

STUDENT REFERRAL BONUS

Current students who refer new students to our classes and programs will receive a thank-you gift from us in the form of a $15 gift card to certain restaurants and retailers. Students will receive this gift card after the referred student stays with us for more than one-months' time. 

CONCERT AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Beginning 2023, we are hosting 4 concerts per calendar year held on the last Friday of each quarter, called the Final Friday Concerts. These concerts will take place in March, June, September, and December. Participation in these concerts are completely optional and may feature students from our Little Jammers and Homeschool Music programs. 

Students will be invited to sign up to participate about 6 weeks before the concert. Times and locations will be determined no later than 8 weeks before the concert date. There is no dress code for these concerts as we want to make the performance experience as comfortable for the student as possible. 

UPDATES AND CHANGES

Seckman Music School may make changes and updates to these policies at any time, but we will provide you with at least 30 days notice before these changes go into effect.
