Description
***PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE REGISTERING***
Piano Lessons are a great way to expand on the musical abilities of a child. Lessons are thirty minutes each, once a week for thirty lessons. No lessons are held on days when school is closed. Practice is an important part of the learning process. Students who take piano lessons will need to have a piano or weighted-key keyboard, with at least 76 keys, at home for regular practice. Ideally, your child should be practicing their lesson assignment daily. A recital is held at the end of the year - usually on and around the second Sunday afternoon (Mother's Day) in May.
Our piano program is associated with the Charlotte Piano Teachers Forum and NC Music Teachers Association. This allows us the option to participate or not to participate, in competitions sponsored by these associations.
There are thirty piano lessons in the school year beginning after Labor Day and ending with a recital in early May. We prefer that you commit for the full year (30 lessons). If circumstances are beyond your control and you need to drop, we ask that you complete the ten week term. The lesson fee is $40 per lesson, billed by the Country Day Business Office three times per year (ten lessons each billing period).
A fee for music books is due directly to the teacher at the time your lesson is scheduled - the teacher will contact you.
Lessons are thirty minutes each, once a week. No lessons are held on days when school is closed. Lessons are held on Parent/Teacher conference days. All lessons missed due to inclement weather and teacher cancellation will be made up. Lessons missed for other reasons can not be made-up.

A Kindergarten student who has a 2:15 pm piano lesson either has to be enrolled in extended day for thirty minutes at the current rate, or someone will need to pick them up from their classroom and bring them to the piano lesson, upstairs on the parking-lot side of the Lower School Fine Arts Building.
A non-refundable deposit of $40 is due with each registration form and is payable when you register here.
