Private lessons and classes can not begin until payment is received in full by check, cash, or the FACTS Tuition Payment Plan with a deposit check for 25% of the annual tuition payable to Amadeus. Private Lessons
can be scheduled for a make-up only if your child is sick and Amadeus Conservatory is texted/emailed/called by 8:00AM on or before the day of the lesson. Make-up lessons are not given for student vacations outside of our public school vacation schedule or other scheduling conflicts. Only two absences due to illness can be make up per year. One semester students will receive one make-up for absence due to illness. Group lessons will not be made up unless cancelled by the teacher or if we are closed for inclement snow. Lessons cancelled by a teacher will be rescheduled, as will lessons missed when the school is closed due to snow. If Chappaqua schools are closed for snow, Amadeus will automatically be closed. Teachers will offer two alternative dates for make-up lessons. If they are refused, the lesson will be considered made up. Make-up lessons cancelled by the student can not be rescheduled. All lessons must be made up by the end of the Amadeus academic year.
