MARCH ANNOUNCEMENTS

Tuition

Reminder that tuition is due by the first of each month and a late fee is applied to your account after the 7th of the month. March tuition can be dropped off at studio class or mailed in or you can use paypal or credit/debit card.

Spring Break

Escambia County Spring Break is March 17-21. This week is optional. That means if you are in town and would like a lesson, let me know. If you decide to opt out, let me know as well. There is not a "make-up" for this week. It's just a bonus for those who want the extra help.

Sonata Contest.

The contest is fast approaching. Please encourage your student to polish, polish, polish. Have them play for guests who come to your home. Record them with your phone and have them watch themselves. Please don't let them lose momentum in these last 2 weeks of preparation. I will have a rehearsal/workshop at my house on Sunday, March 9 at 1:00/2:00/3:00 for those who would like to come. Everyone will get about 10-15 minutes of detailed work on their song from a guest teacher I'm bringing in. Please sign up this week on my board if you'd like the extra help. Performance times are listed in the previous post.

Student Day

Many of you have students in Student Day. Please mark your calendars for April 5 at Pensacola Christian Academy. (This is a change from PSC last year). Performance times will be posted soon.

Festival Success
Congratulations to everyone on all their hard work preparing for Federation Festival. I was so proud to see them up their performing their fingers out. The extra rehearsal paid off!
