Cancellation Policies

Class Cancellations


In the rare event that a class is cancelled, students will be notified in advance (as best possible) in person or by phone. The exception to this is class cancellation due to foul weather...

Bad Weather Cancellations - As a rule, our classes will follow the school cancellation schedule for Rockbridge County (not Lexington). In the event of extended snow days in the County, classes may resume before schools do. Students will be notified by phone if this should occur.

Cancelled classes do NOT count as absences.



Student Absences


Students are asked to give at least 12 hours notice of a class absence. Please call Karen at (540) 570-4791 and leave a message if needed. Repeated 'last-minute' absences (3 in 2 months) will result in being charged for the missed class. Thank you for your cooperation.

Students receive one excused absence for every set of five classes purchased (ie. 5 classes/1 excused absence ; 10 classes/2 excused absences).
