☀️ Summer Harmony Road Class Policies

These policies apply to short-format Harmony Road classes offered during the summer (2- or 4-week sessions).

Once your class is confirmed, you'll receive a confirmation email and your tuition will be billed to your account on file.
Full payment is due 7 days before your class begins.
A registration and materials fee applies to all summer classes and is non-refundable unless we need to cancel the class.

We are unable to offer refunds for cancellations made less than 7 days before the class start date.
Registration and materials fees are non-refundable under any circumstances unless the class is canceled by us.
We do not offer credits toward future lessons or classes.
If you need to miss a class, please contact us at info@heartbeatsmusicschool.com or call/text 916-818-3882 to let us know!

We are not able to offer make-ups or rescheduling for missed classes in short summer sessions.
In the case of illness or emergency, we will provide an at-home activity sheet to support continued learning.

A parent or caregiver is required to attend class with the enrolled student.
Grown-ups will participate in class activities alongside their child, including singing, movement, and musical play.
Please make arrangements for any non-enrolled children during class time.
Additional children or guests are not allowed in the classroom.
There is an observation window in the lobby where family members may watch.
Older siblings may wait in the lobby if they can sit quietly and respectfully on their own, but we encourage you to make other plans when possible.

Each week, your teacher will assign simple and fun activities for you and your child to complete together at home.
At-home music time is a vital part of your child’s development and reinforces the learning from class.
We recommend practicing at least three days a week to build strong musical habits and confidence.
