The teacher reserves the right to take up to two (2) weeks of leave per calendar year, which may be used for either vacation or sick leave. These weeks may be taken consecutively or separately as needed. Tuition will not be adjusted, and lessons missed during this time will not be rescheduled. Students will be given advance notice whenever possible. Tuition is assessed as a reservation of the teacher’s professional time and commitment across the academic year, rather than on a per-lesson basis, ensuring stability and continuity of instruction.
