Conservatory Registration Information
An Applied Registration Form must be completed for each child and each type of lesson. Students enrolled in more than one applied lesson must complete a separate registration form for each lesson. Registration forms are available on this web site and should be submitted electronically. All lessons will be scheduled on a first-come-first-serve basis. Any forms received after the August 18, 2021 deadline will be processed in the fall or will be entered on a waiting list should lesson times fill up. Lessons will begin the first week in September. To enroll, please use the link to the right.

1. Payment of Fees
The Applied Lesson Fee for the entire year can be paid through the registration site. If lesson costs are not paid in full, they will be charged on the 5th of each month September - April. Please contact Justin Pepper at tjpepper@briarcrest.com if you have any questions regarding your payment. We will work with each individual family on an as-needed basis. -
2. Discontinuing Lessons
Applied Lessons Enrollment is a year-long commitment (two-semesters) consisting of 30 lessons. Those students who choose to drop an Applied Lesson may apply for a refund of the fee balance, if no more than the first three lessons have been taken during the Fall Semester; however, you are obligated to pay for those lessons received. After the 3rd lesson, no fees are refundable. -
3. Scheduling
Applied Lessons are scheduled around the academic classroom schedule. These times are after school, during recess, lunch/break, related arts classes, study hall, or physical education. -
4. Attendance
When advance notice events take place (i.e., class field trips, special school-wide assemblies, personal appointments with doctors, dentists, etc., or shortened school days), the student or parent has full responsibility to contact the assigned Applied Lessons teacher a minimum of one day in advance in order for the absence to be considered excused. The instructor is not obligated to schedule make-up lessons for unexcused absences. No student is allowed more than one make-up lesson per semester under any circumstance. Some make-ups may be group lessons, theory classes, or performance classes. The final week of each semester serves as an opportunity to make-up excused absences.Excused Absences In order for the lesson to be considered excused, prior notification concerning the absences must be made with the Applied Lessons teacher. Excused lessons are made up as the teacher’s schedule permits with the understanding that not all excused lessons may be able to be rescheduled. When a lesson will be missed due to illness, please give the teacher as much prior notification as possible.Unexcused Absences All other absences from lessons are considered unexcused and no make-up lesson is scheduled. Please note that lessons missed due to personal or family vacations scheduled during the academic calendar year are unexcused absences.
In the event that school is discontinued in person due to a closure, lessons will be continued virtually; therefore, all accounts will continue to be active, and payments will be expected as per usual. -
