MONTHLY TUITION RATES

Tuition is paid in advance at a flat monthly rate based on four (4) lessons per month. Months with a fifth lesson include that lesson at no additional cost or may allow it to be used as a make-up lesson.

If a missed lesson qualifies for a tuition credit or refund under CMS policy, families may choose to donate that amount back to CMS to help offset administrative and operational costs.
