Suzuki Association of the Americas Membership
The Suzuki Association of the Americas (SAA) membership includes parents committed to the development of the Suzuki program. With an Associate Membership ($30), parents receive a subscription to the American Suzuki Journal with a wealth of parent tips and support, and updates on Suzuki Institutes and other activities throughout the year. All parents are encouraged to be an Associate Member of the SAA.
Play-in Attendance
As a part of a complete Suzuki experience, student attendance at all
play-ins is expected. It is the student's responsibility to register his/her attendance on the sign-in sheet at each play-in. Student absences of two or more play-ins in one school year may result in the student being released from the private teacher's studio and/or the Suzuki program.
Weekly Group Attendance
As a part of a complete Suzuki experience, student attendance at all
group lessons is expected. Excessive student absences or irregular attendance may result in the student being released from the private teacher's studio and/or the Suzuki program.
Solo Recitals
Each student will perform on one scheduled solo recital each year (see
calendar for event dates) and must sign up with performance information on the Solo Recital Sign Up Sheet for the appropriate date found on the 2nd floor bulletin board. Performance piece will be at the discretion of the private teacher. To foster student support of peers and increase listening and performance skills for Suzuki program students, all students are encouraged to attend one solo recital at which they are not performing per year.
Group Recital
Each student is expected to participate in the
spring workshop activities and group recital held for Amarillo College Suzuki String Students in early spring (see
calendar for event dates). Check the Suzuki website at
www.actx.edu/~suzuki for dates and further details.
Missed Lesson Policy
Each private teacher will provide their own missed lesson policy. In all studios, every attempt should be made to trade times with another student for any foreseen lesson conflicts. Make up lessons MAY be arranged (at the convenience of the instructor) provided 24 hours notice is given to the instructor. Missed lessons with no notification will be forfeited.
Student/Parent Contact Information
Each family is responsible for updating contact information in a timely manner. To keep mailing costs to a minimum, most program information is distributed through email and posted to the Suzuki website at
www.actx.edu/~suzuki. Please keep your email address current and check the website on a regular basis for updates.
