SUMMER 2023
Rolling Registration
SPCAA follows a rolling admissions policy: registration is welcomed at any time throughout the academic year. If a student begins after the first day of the quarter, after contact with the music or dance faculty member who will be offering the lessons, the tuition fee will be prorated.
Contact Us
Contacting the appropriate music or dance faculty is essential before registration; she or he will discuss details of the new registration and answer any questions. If a student starts in the middle of a quarter or near the end of the year, the late start may (or may not) affect a student’s opportunity to perform in a public recital.
Enrollment for Music/Dance Lessons
From the Program & Lessons, see the list of offerings; select the department; select “More” to know more; and select the classes you want.
On Paper: In the Program Guide, a paper copy of the registration form can be printed and submitted to SPCAA in person at 149 Genesee Street in Geneva (please call 315-789-0106 for an appointment), or mail with a $50.00 annual registration fee (per family) to: St. Peter’s Community Arts Academy, P.O. Box 266, Geneva, NY 14456.
Tuition Payment with Annual $50.00 Registration Fee (Per Family)
Tuition is due quarterly at the beginning of each quarter; payment can be made via credit card or check in coordination with Kim Wagner, SPCAA Bookkeeper. All requests for refunds/credits must be made in writing. Registration fees are not refundable. Tuition can be 100% refunded before the first lesson and 50% before the 3rd lesson. After the 3rd lesson, tuition is not refundable.
