December Newsletter/Policy changes
Tuesday, December 19, 2017 by Constance Kamerick | Uncategorized
Happy Holidays families, it has been a great 2017!
I hope everyone has had a great year of practicing, learning, and performing! With 2017 wrapping up, I have some announcements to make for the upcoming year that I would like everyone to know! After resigning from my previous second job and switching to teaching full time, I have learned that I need to make an update to my studio policy ( a common practice among full time teachers). Effective 1/1/18 all students are required to pay for every time slot they are scheduled for regardless of attendance. This new policy has prompted a few technological upgrades to assist with the change. If you are needing to reschedule a lesson, you will be allowed to do so within that same month on the student portal. I have invested in online scheduling so you can reschedule the lesson at a minimum of 48 hours in advance. (The more in advance, the better!) If you are realizing that another permanent day and time might work better, you can also utilize the online schedule to change your regular time.
I am in the process of implementing a few other technological upgrades. I am now able to send invoices and receipts to you electronically and you can log in to see those anytime you want. I am also going to be able to upload documents to the student/parent portal to enhance practicing at home, you can log practice times as well. Another great benefit is that I can now accept credit/debit card payments so you will not have to write a check each time. There are so many things to look forward to with a more organized and successful studio this new year!
I enjoy and am thankful for each of my students and I hope this policy is not going to impact your ability to stay in lessons for the next year.
If you have any questions I am always available by text or phone at 515-612-0728.
Here is to a New Year!
