Music Lessons

MUSIC LESSONS

Our After School program also offers one-on-one music lessons for Redwood Day Students in the X-Care program. Our music lessons run for longer windows of time outside of our enrichment program to provide students with more regular instruction and practice. We offer lessons in Guitar, Ukulele, and Piano for all ages. Please review more detailed information below.
 
REGISTRATION: Music lessons are also offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. Lessons are enrolled ahead of time, similar to our enrichment classes. All lessons are offered one day per week for 30 minutes. In an effort to share our limited time slots with our entire community, we ask that students not enroll in more than 130-minute lessons per week. You will have opportunities to enroll or re-enroll at each registration window. 
 
BILLING: All music lessons are due at registration. They are billed at $85 per 30-minute lesson throughout a given session. Similar to our enrichment program, we ask that families commit to lessons for the entire session and may drop after the first lesson if they feel a student is not ready or the lessons are not a great fit. 
 
CANCELLATION POLICY: We also understand that it can be difficult to maintain consistent time slots for music lessons. We allow for one refundable cancellation each trimester with 24 hours advance notice. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds beyond the individual allowable cancellation. 
 
We are actively exploring new opportunities to add additional music lessons to our portfolio. If you are interested in lessons, please register via our waitlist if lesson times are full so we can gauge our needs.
