Piano Newsletter (with Recital and Summer/Fall enrollment) April/May 2011

Hey there! April got away from me before I could get the newsletter finished! Whew!

The recital is going to be May 23rd. I will once again hold 2 recitals so we have enough room for people and so we don't have to sit for a really long time.
I will send home a paper with your recital time in the next week or so.
It will be at the Rigby Library again.

If you don't mind, get me an approximate head count again so I have enough seats.

Everyone is doing great with their recital songs.

We will not have lessons the week of the 23rd, only the recital.


My summer times for piano are filling up quickly. I have been putting new people on a waiting list, but I need to open up to them soon. I know a few of you mentioned interest but haven't told me a time you want to have lessons yet.I still have Tuesday and Wednesday times available but Monday is completely full.

I also need to know who is returning for the Fall.
I will have registration forms available starting next week.
There is a nonrefundable $10 registration fee that is due by June 1st to hold your spot. In September I will apply that $10 to your first month of lessons.
If you have younger or older siblings you want to start in piano I will have room for them, but I need to know before June 1st which is when I open up my waiting list to fall lessons. I only planned for 15 students last year and ended up with 20 (and I adore each and every one of them!) but this fall I plan to stick to 20 students.

I'd also like to set up times when you register for Fall to make everyone's lives easier. This next year I will start at 3:00pm for lessons and will not hold lessons on Frid so I can use that as a make up day. I will also have times in the early morning and/or during the day for the busy and/or homeschooled student, but I'd like to limit that to Monday and Tuesday please.
If you have a time you would like to reserve for piano please let me know.

If you are not returning for the Fall I would appreciate knowing as soon as possible so I can open up your spot to the waitlist. I love all of my students, but I understand some of you are moving or just won't have time. Just let me know if you can please.

Have a great month (a busy one for sure)!

Please feel free to email or call me with any questions.
