Terms and Policies

Yearly Registration Fee:

Every student pays a registration fee once per school year. Registration fees are assessed at the time of initial enrollment and every following September 1st as long as the student remains enrolled. (some exceptions apply)

Tuition:

Tuition is auto-debited tuition on the first of every month. Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover are accepted. Bloom reserves the right to assess a late fee for charges that don’t go through.

Stopping Classes/Lessons and Tuition:

To withdraw from all classes/lessons at Bloom, a 30-day advanced notice is required. To stop or take a break, submit the online withdrawal form HERE. The form will indicate the date your enrollment will conclude and tuition will be assessed for any classes/lessons scheduled to occur through that date.

Student Absences

1. Private Lessons - If a student is absent for their weekly private lesson, their teacher will automatically leave the student an online video lesson with new material via our online lesson system, LessonMate.org. The student will be responsible for reviewing the online lesson material to prepare for the following week. Private lessons cannot be temporarily rescheduled. There are no make-ups for missed private lessons. Click here for more information about LessonMate.
2. Group Music and Dance Classes - If a student misses their weekly group music or dance class, your account will be issued a make-up credit. Make-up credits can be used in any group music or dance class in your student's age level (space permitting) and must be scheduled in advance. Make-up credits can not be used in place of tuition. Make-up credits expire at pre-determined dates throughout the school year OR at the end of your 30-day withdrawal notice (whichever comes first). Please contact the front desk to schedule your make-up following your absence.

1. Rock Band - If a student is absent for their weekly rock band class, their teacher will leave the student an online summary of what the rest of the band accomplished that week via our online lesson system, LessonMate.org. The student will be responsible for reviewing the summary to prepare for the following week. There are no make-ups for missed Rock Band classes. Click here for more information about LessonMate.

Substitute & Replacement Teachers:

Classes and Lessons will be held every week (except for scheduled closures - see school calendar). Bloom School reserves the right to provide a substitute teacher if the regularly scheduled teacher is ill or otherwise unable to attend a class. The regular teacher of your child may change at any time, but this is a rare occurrence. We will try and let you know ahead of time, but this may not always be possible.

Parent/Guardian Responsibilities:

1. Families are responsible for being aware of all holidays, events, and school days etc.
2. All children ages 5 years & under must have a parent or guardian on the premises before, during and after class.
3. All children ages 6 years & older must have a parent or guardian on the premises immediately before and immediately after classes. There is no one on the premises before or after classes that is designated to watch your child.

Student Behavior: We are proud of the safe, encouraging and respectful environment we have at Bloom. To stay enrolled all students are asked to play and participate in a safe, respectful way, to be good listeners and to be curious.

Release of Liability: Parents, legal guardians of minor students and adult students waive the right to any legal action for any injury sustained on school property resulting from normal lesson/class activity or any other activity conducted by the students before, during or after class/lesson time.
