Tuition & billing
Straightforward pricing for lessons and classes.
Here are the numbers we publish for Pacific, Missouri families (and those who drive in from around St. Louis). Most tuition is billed monthly and paid ahead; you review and pay in My Music Staff. New families pay a one-time registration fee (once per household). If something does not match the list below, we can explain—no pressure.

Monthly billing in plain English
This matches what we cover when you register—so you can read it now and ask questions before you sign up. Current studio policies are acknowledged as part of enrollment; ask anytime if you want the latest copy before you commit.
New-family registration: $20 once per household when you start ongoing lessons or classes.
Monthly payment: lessons and classes are billed by the month and paid in advance. You get an invoice by email before the month ends. Pay on or before your last lesson of the current month for the upcoming month. If an account is late, a $10 late fee may apply.
Paying & checking your balance: Payments and account balances are handled through My Music Staff, the portal families use for invoices and billing. Log in anytime to see what you owe.
