Tuition

The tuition amounts above apply to each student. However, if a family has more than one student enrolled and the total number of class hours such family's students are enrolled in is 6 or less, the tuition will be based on the total hours of all such students (i.e., treated as one student for tuition purposes). Any class up to one hour (i.e., 45 or 60 minute classes) is treated as one class hour. Master Classes, Bootcamps, and the Summer Academy have separate tuition schedules. There are additional charges for children participating in the recital, further described below under "Additional Information."

  • 3-Payment Plan - The school year tuition will be billed in three (3) installments with the first payment due at registration, the second payment due 11/1 and the third payment due 2/1.
