Absence policies
One (1) excused absence is allowed per 12-lesson payment cycle with at least 1 week's notice. Students may take up to four (4) excused absences per year (January–December) with prior notice. If the teacher is unavailable for an in-person lesson, a make-up lesson will be provided in the form of a group class, virtual Zoom lesson, or tutorial video.
