Commitment:  By enrolling in a Kindermusik class you are making a commitment to the entire semester. Allegrow Music is making a commitment to provide you with the highest quality music experience by partnering with Allegrow Music. You have made a commitment to attend your class at a designated weekly time and Allegrow Music has saved that time for your family. Once the semester begins, no one can fill your child's spot in his/her absence; therefore regular attendance is encouraged.

Fees:  Non-refundable registration deposits are due with your registration form to reserve a space for your child. This deposit will be applied to the total cost of your Kindermusik class. Tuition is paid on a semester basis. It may be paid in full with the registration form or may be paid in monthly installments.  Allegrow Music accepts cash, check, Visa and MasterCard.  If you cancel your child's registration within two weeks prior to classes starting, you will not be obligated to pay the tuition, however, the registration deposit is non-refundable. No refunds are available once the semester begins. Please make your check payments to Allegrow Music.

Classroom Etiquette: Please help us minimize distractions by turning off your cell phones and placing personal items in designated areas. Remove your shoes and your child's shoes for class and place them outside the classroom door. Food and drink are not allowed in the classroom. You are strongly encouraged to leave snacks, sippy cups, pacifiers, and favorite toys at home or in the car. Your child will need to have his/her hands free to hold musical instruments and fully participate in all activities.


Teacher Absence/Illness: In the event of teacher absence or illness, a substitute teacher may teach your class or you may get a call postponing the class. In the case of postponing the class, you will resume classes the following week. The semester will be extended by one week.

Communication: Ginger Bennett, our Kindermusik educator, is a board certified music therapist and a certified neurologic music therapist. She has professional experience and guidance available for a wide variety of developmental needs. Any information regarding changes in your family which, may have an impact on your child's learning, should be shared with her. Before and after class may not always be the best time to chat about these confidential issues. If Ms. Ginger is unavailable for an immediate discussion, she will make it a priority to personally call you later in the week.
