Grace has published the South Region schedule. The period for swaps is now open. Remember, this is not a guarantee you can swap with somebody, unless there is a student who needs your time. If you have enough students, it's always best to swap within your studio. We can only swap if the student's performance duration is THE SAME. Even by 5 minutes difference, we cannot do it.
New this year! All performance makeups will now be done through the parents and the state office. There will be a designated location and time for them to take a makeup. This is available to all students of all grades. They will announce something in the spring. There is an extra fee. Make sure that the student was a NO SHOW in their result. They cannot have a makeup if they were a drop or withdrawn.
Theory makeups are now available to all grades. This date will be announced at the end of test period. The location is my house as always.
Please inform us if there are any drops as soon as possible

Note from Olya Katsman about Mariam Safinia's class:
This is my second year being a student at the School of Practical Philosophy and the impact the school made on my teaching, my family, and my parenting is invaluable. I feel much more centered and present. Dealing with every day stress is so much easier. Going to the school has made a great impact not just in my life, but in the lives of all the people around me. Mariam is a wonderful teacher and she gave me many practical tools for seeing what's important in life, not being a slave to my emotions and accessing that "wise" person that all of us have within us. The school changed my life. The teaching can transform how you relate to students and parents, as well as yourself, your family, and friends
