Students may take up to four weeks off from lessons during the months of May through August without being charged for those lessons.

 

The four weeks may be taken consecutively or divided among different months. For example, a student may take all four weeks off in June, or take two weeks off in June and two weeks off in August.

 

To use the Optional Summer Break, the student/parent must complete the Optional Summer Break Form at least 7 days before the beginning of the month in which the break will be taken. The form must specify the lesson dates the student will miss.

 

A maximum of four lesson-weeks may be used during the entire May–August period. Unused Summer Break weeks do not carry over and cannot be used as credits or make-up lessons.

 

If the Optional Summer Break Form is not submitted by the required deadline, the absence will be considered a missed lesson and will be subject to the Academy’s Absences & Missed Lesson Policy. Please refer to the Absences & Missed Lesson Policy for details.
