SUMMER POLICIES
Payment
A $50 deposit is required upon registration to hold your spot. This amount will be deducted from your invoice upon full registration.
Payment for summer programming is due June 30th, 2024.
We accept payment by either e transfer (northernartsacademy@shaw.ca), cash or cheque.
Students may only commence instruction (whether private lesson or group class) when registration has been confirmed and payment has been processed. Students are not considered registered until payment has been received.
Withdrawal
Summer tuition is non-refundable and non-transferable after June 30th, 2024.
Location
All summer classes and lessons will take place at Northern Arts Academy - 163 East Street.
Attendance
Students are expected to be present and on time for all private lessons and group classes and to participate actively in their musical development. Unfortunately, time lost as a result of student lateness or absence cannot be made up. A time has been reserved for you regardless of whether or not you attend.
Gender Identity and Expression
NAA is committed to ensuring the physical and emotional safety of all students. As part of this commitment, we want to make sure students of all gender expressions and identities feel safe, welcomed and accepted in our Academy.
NAA has included pronoun identifiers as part of the registration process. This helps staff to respect the identity of our students, and encourage others in the class to do so as well.
Duty of Care
Our priority at NAA is ensuring that everyone feels safe, comfortable, and confident with their decision to participate in programs with us. We have developed a comprehensive plan that adheres to local and provincial health guidelines. To keep our students safe we ask:
If someone in your household tests is ill, and the student has no symptoms and intends to attend their lesson or class, we encourage you to wear a mask. A disposable medical grade mask will work well for children - the mask should tightly cover their nose and chin.
There will be sanitizer available upon entering the building.
We ask if students are unwell to stay home. Please notify your instructor in advance for accommodation.
Promotional Release
Unless otherwise requested, students may appear in Northern Arts Academy promotional materials and/or media which may include visual or audio representation.
Communication
As email or texting is the most efficient form of communication with students, it is the responsibility of the student or parent/guardian to check their email and phones for school updates. Please keep your online profile with us up to date and make any necessary changes to your contact information as soon as possible.
