REHEARSALS
Rehearsals are MANDATORY beginning on 4/3, except 4/17. So if you want to be in this show, you cannot miss those rehearsals unless there’s an emergency or you are sick.
One thing to note is that dress rehearsals and shows may be difficult for preschool students because of how late and long rehearsals and shows are.
TUITION
There is a non-refundable registration fee of $100 to secure your spot for The Wizard of Oz. This will not roll over to the tuition to cover the upfront costs. The fee will be due on August 15, 2024.
Tuition payment schedule is as follows:
Regardless of attendance, payment will need to be current with each month in order to participate.
Tuition is based on overall costs (not per week). This includes the Rights to perform the play, costume and prop fees, as well as, script and music fees, sound equipment fees, space fees and other costs. Because we have already cut our costs for each student as must as we possibly can, we do not offer sibling discounts. Scholarship and Payment Plans are available upon request.

TEACHER COMMUNICATION
Please email info@grossomusic.com or text 813.924.3226 with questions.
MISSED LESSONS
Please notify your teacher 24 hours in advance of any absence. This notice, however does not exempt the student from payment for a missed group lesson. Grosso Music and Fine Arts Corporation is under no obligation to give a make-up lesson as a result of a student’s absence.
LATE PAYMENTS
Tuition payments are considered late if not received by the 16th of the month. In this case you will be charged a late fee of $20. Grosso Music and Fine Arts Corporation reserves the right to stop lessons if there is an unpaid account balance and the matter shall be turned over to a third party for resolution.
PARENT OBSERVATION
Parents will not be in rehearsals, due to spacing issues, unless there are mitigating circumstances. This makes the show more exciting for the parents to watch as well. Please do not drop off your child in the parking lot or leave them unattended. We are not responsible for watching students beyond their scheduled rehearsal time. Please respect this policy as we try to make the learning environment as safe and fun as possible.
TARDY ARRIVAL
Please arrive on time for your rehearsal. Students arriving late will not have their rehearsal time extended and are still responsible for all material that they missed.
DISCONTINUATION POLICY
In the event that the student has decided to discontinue lessons, we require a ONE MONTH NOTICE. You will be considered a student and billed accordingly, unless a withdrawal notice is received in writing. Regardless of when appropriate notice is given, such student/parent shall be financially responsible for the following month, whether the student/parent chooses to attend or be absent. No refund will be given, thus the student must finish the remainder of the month or forego any unused lessons.
Grosso Music and Fine Arts Corporation reserves the right to dismiss any student at any time if any of these circumstances occur:
a) Failure to pay tuition on time
b) Uncooperative attitude
c) Repeated missed lessons without a valid excuse
GROUP PERFORMANCE
A commitment to our production is required at the time of sign-up. Every part is important in producing a show. If a student is unhappy with casting, it is not a good reason to quit the show. It is a learning opportunity to work as a group and shine in a different role.
