News from the Lassiter String Academy

A few reminders:

-If a student has a lesson scheduled on a sectional or rehearsal day, go to the lesson unless Ms. Doemel says otherwise in advance.

-Its okay to keep the lesson schedule on concert days, just go to the lesson, then be on stage in formal attire at the designated time.

-Lesson cancellations shall be handled by student and teacher.  Teachers have a master schedule from Ms. Doemel and know when lessons need to be cancelled or rescheduled.  Students are responsible for keeping-up with their lessons, and missed lessons are still charged.

Questions?

For accounting, email Amy at StringAcademy@lhsoa.org
For scheduling and policy, email the directors at lassiterorchestras@gmail.com

CPA Needed for LHSOA Financial Audit

The LHSOA Board of Directors is seeking a CPA with audit experience to perform an audit of our finances as required by our organization’s by-laws.  We would prefer to have a CPA provide this service to us pro bono, or a reduced fee so that our monies can be used for programming for the kids instead of professional services.

Please send a note expressing interest to Jonathan Warner at president@lhsoa.org.
