We have made this change only to make our rates inclusive of the Gross Receipt Tax. (Marty and Bill need their share too!) Each service has been increased to include tax and round up to the nearest dollar amount. This is in an effort to make the front desk process more streamlined for our staff and less complex for our clients. If you have questions please see the front desk for help. Registration for February classes will be during the last week of January classes. Please visit the front desk to make your lesson arrangements for February. We have several lesson slots that have filled and have waiting lists so please let us know as far in advanced of your lesson desires.
