Payment Options Under New Contract - Thursday, June 25, 2009

Since we've released the 2nd semester revised enrollment contract, there have been some questions about what you are supposed to do regarding payment for private lessons.

You have 4 options:

1) Pay Monthly Tuition during the last week of the month for the next upcoming month. Pay a security deposit of $40 per student, which is refundable when we have received your 30-day termination notice and payment for your last month's tuition. $20 late fee assessed for payments made after the 1st.

2) Pay Monthly Tuition using Automatic Credit Card Subscription on the 25th of each month for the next upcoming month. Pay a security deposit of $40 per student, which is refundable when we have received your 30-day termination notice and payment for your last month's tuition. Avoids the $20 late fee, since you won't forget to pay tuition.

3) Pay Monthly Tuition using 6 Post-Dated Checks for the 25th of each month for the next upcoming month (Dated June - November, payment for July - December). No Security Deposit Required. Avoids the $20 late fee, since you won't forget to pay tuition.

4) Pay Semester Tuition in Advance. Make a payment for tuition in full for the entire semester and not only will we waive the security deposit, we'll give you 10% off tuition! You'll never pay a late fee, either. It's the best option for everyone!

Ms. Margo has extended the deadline for new enrollment contracts to be returned to July 10. Please THOROUGHLY READ your enrollment packet and complete and return your forms with your PAYMENT OPTION SELECTED and your tuition.

A NOTE FROM THE OWNER PERTAINING TO CONTRACT UPDATES - Saturday, June 20, 2009

This post is important! Please Read.

Dear Students and Parents,

First, we would like to thank you for your continued business. Harmony Music Studio is proud to announce that we have more than tripled in size in the 2 years since moving to our current location. As we flourish, we continue to look for ways to fine-tune the areas that become obstacles in our path as we expand. We are a small business with limitations and we must make changes to protect the studio.

Music lessons are a luxury and opportunity that provide everyone involved the gift that lasts a lifetime. We want to continue to be an asset to our community by being more organized and efficient. We offer the most economical price of all music schools in the Bay Area, but our losses grow larger by the month as we grow, as well. In order for Harmony Music Studio to continue to survive and provide the best instructors in our area, we must reduce these losses by becoming more stringent about our policies. A copy of the renewed contract can be located at the front desk or down loaded from our Web-page at HarmonyMusicStudio.com. Beginning May 31, we are accepting registrations for our 2nd semester, which is from July —December 2009.

Rules and guidelines have a purpose and come about by trial and error. We greatly appreciate our customers who always have abided by the past contract and we take note of your courtesy and effort in honoring our past agreements. However, due to a large number of our customers who are not honoring the contract, some major changes in policy must be accepted by all who would like to be enrolled in our school beginning in July 2009.

Students who withdraw for a month or more must re-register when they return, including registration fees. We cannot hold time slots for students who withdraw for any length of time, as we now have a waiting list of students wishing to enroll.

If you have any questions about the new policy, please email me directly at msmargo @ harmonymusicstudio.com.


Sincerely,


Ms. Margo (owner and founder since 1986)
