HOW SCHEDULING WORKS

Children are initially assigned a reserved spot into an "early" or "late" segment on their regular lesson day roughly based on their regular lesson time.
- This spot is guaranteed until May 4th.
- From May 4th, all unconfirmed spots are open to all families in any open segment during the week.
We know this may not be ideal for every family, so we have added the ability to self-service reschedule online from May 4th until June 1st into any open segment during the week
If a student cannot attend their scheduled day and none of the open spots work for you, you can submit a scheduling request for as many different segments as can work for you.
- Requests are processed on a first come first served basis and are not guaranteed, but we will do our best to fit you in if we have space!
Please note that if you schedule your child on a day other than their regular lesson day, their teacher may not be scheduled to work, and may be unavailable to support them.
- In these cases, we will assign another Keylab teacher who will consult with your child's teacher to provide support for their performance.

ANSWERS TO COMMON SCHEDULING QUESTIONS

What if my child can't attend on their scheduled day?

You may self-service reschedule online from May 4th or request to attend on a different day.
While we cannot guarantee availability, we will do our best to accommodate requests.

Can we reschedule to a different day or segment after confirming our participation?

Yes! If you confirm a spot but want to move to a different day or segment, self-service reschedule to any open spot during performance party week until June 1st.
Please note that if you give up your current spot it will immediately become available to other families, and we cannot guarantee we will be able to move you back.

What if I have more than one child participating?

If you have siblings enrolled on different days, each child has a reserved spot on their regular lesson day.
Most families prefer to come on the same day, but this is not required.
If you want to keep the current assignments, just confirm here.
If you want to schedule them into the same performance segment, you will need to contact us before May 4th for guaranteed placement into either of their currently scheduled spots. Once scheduled, the other spot will be released.

What if I have a child with more than one enrollment and they have more than one performance spot reserved?

If your child takes more than one lesson per week on different days, they have a reserved spot on each day, but will only be performing in one spot.
Simply confirm the spot that works best for you and the other will be released automatically.

What if we have confirmed our child as a performer but have changed our mind and just want to attend the event without them performing?
