Tuition Payment Policy

Payments are recurring and are charged to your debit/credit card on the first of each month until a Withdrawal Form is submitted to Grace Music School’s office. Withdrawal forms must be submitted by the 15th of your final month to discontinue lessons and stop charges to your account. Authorization for automatic payment is given when the card is provided.

Monthly tuition is a flat rate based on 48 lessons per year, and we are open 48 weeks per year in accordance with our published holiday calendar. Students average 4 lessons per month and the tuition is the same each month; i.e., you are not charged more when you have five lessons in a month, and not charged less when you have three lessons in a month.

Attendance Policy

Lessons have been reserved for you or your child at a specific time and day. This is the time for which you are responsible until you withdraw from lessons, and your attendance is expected.

We have a strict 24-hour cancellation policy. If you need to cancel a lesson for any reason, Please contact the office by texting (631) 470-9705 (Woobury) / (631) 239-6169 (Fort Salonga) or emailing us at woodbury@gracemusicschool.com / fort@gracemusicschool.com to cancel the lesson, or speak with the front desk staff, at least 24 hours before the lesson, in which case we will do our best to reschedule that lesson, subject to the availability of your teacher. Students are limited to two rescheduled lessons per quarter, which do not rollover.

Lessons canceled less than 24 hours in advance are not eligible for reschedules, credits, or refunds of any kind. Class tuition will not be refunded in the event of a student cancellation regardless of how far in advance notice of the cancellation is given. Students are not guaranteed a reschedule and scheduling requests should not be made to teachers.

In lieu of canceling a lesson, you may request an online lesson if you are ill or unable to commute to our school for any reason.

In the event of a teacher absence, a qualified substitute will be provided for that day, or the student will be given a guaranteed reschedule.
