Scheduling Policy

 The Stewart Music Studio runs on a two-session schedule each year: School Year and Summer.

 

SCHOOL YEAR SESSION

Monday, August 1, 2022 through Thursday, May 25, 2023

School year tuition is based on one lesson a week with weeks off already factored into the tuition rate. 

These off weeks are:

LABOR DAY: Friday, September 2, 2022 through Monday, September 5, 2022

THANKSGIVING BREAK: Monday, November 21, 2022 through Sunday, November 27, 2022

CHRISTMAS BREAK: Friday, December 23, 2022 through Sunday, December 29, 2022

NEW YEAR’S BREAK: Monday, December 30, 2022 through Thursday, January 5, 2023

EASTER AND SPRING BREAK: Saturday, April 8, 2023 through Friday, April 14, 2023


SUMMER SESSION

 Monday, June 5, 2023 and Sunday, July 30, 2023

The summer provides a wonderfully productive time for special projects because double lessons and/or closely scheduled lessons offer continuity and intensity that is not always possible during the school year. Lessons in the summer can be creatively scheduled in order to fit around summer plans such as two lessons in a week or "doubling up" on time.  Summer Session is based on a minimum of 8 lessons, which can be scheduled however it fits best between the students and teachers. No lessons are scheduled on Sunday July 4, 2023. A copy of the availability calendar is due to the teacher no later than May 10, 2023. After this date, the ability to schedule summer lessons will be based on the teacher’s availability. A final summer schedule for each student will be sent out by May 20, 2023. Students who take lessons during the Summer Session will have priority schedule preferences for the School Year Session.

This policy helps ensure the Stewart Music Studio retains high-quality faculty and keep tuition rates low.
