About Colburn Community School of Performing ArtsThe Colburn Community School of Performing Arts (CSPA) serves students of all ages with classes in music, dance, drama and early childhood arts education, taught by acclaimed faculty committed to providing the highest quality teaching on a modern campus designed solely for excellence in performance and education.
Founded in 1950 as an open-enrollment school, the CSPA covers a broad range of styles, age levels and degrees of difficulty. Music classes include applied musical instruction, music theory, chamber ensemble and orchestral opportunities. Dance classes through the Trudl Zipper Dance Institute offer a wide range in disciplines from ballet, tap, modern, creative, jazz and musical theatre dance. In addition to their individual studies, Colburn students participate in a variety of community outreach programs and perform in more than 300 concerts and recitals each year, many of which are free and open to the public.

PLEASE READ THE NEW SCHOOL POLICY BELOW REGARDING THE DROP PROCEDURE FOR COURSES THAT REQUIRE YEAR-LONG ENROLLMENT
At the Colburn School, we strive for open communication between faculty, students and administration and ask that you familiarize yourself with the summary of our school policies below. The complete school policy can be found on our website at colburnschool.edu
Registration ProcedureThe registration procedures at The Colburn School are designed to place students in appropriate courses through interviews, auditions, and other screening methods. These procedures help to minimize enrollment in inappropriate courses, and to minimize the need to drop lessons and classes. Registration must be completed during the Formal Registration period listed on the Academic Calendar to avoid a late fee. Any student who registers after the Formal Registration period will be subject to a $25 late registration fee.
Drop/Withdraw ProcedureThe parent/student must complete and submit the Drop Form either in person, via email or fax, prior to the first day of the semester. Once receipt is confirmed by the CSPA office, prior to the first day of the semester, the request to drop the class, ensemble, and/or private instruction will be reviewed by the Dean. Upon the Dean’s approval, 100% of the tuition is refunded. Anytime during the first week of the semester, 75% of the tuition is refunded. After the first week through the second week, 50% of the tuition is refunded. After the second week through the third week, 25% of the tuition is refunded. After the third week, there are NO REFUNDS.
Informing an instructor of a decision to withdraw, stopping payment, or not attending class does not constitute a withdrawal. Exceptional requests for refunds due to a family or medical emergency may be made in writing to the Dean within 14 days of the missed class and must include appropriate documentation. There is no guarantee that a full refund will be approved due to a family or medical emergency.
For classes and ensembles that require a year-long commitment, students may request to drop the spring semester during the formal drop period. The formal drop period for the 2017-2018 academic year is defined as December 1, 2017- January 10, 2018, which will prove the necessary time for the ensemble director/faculty to plan accordingly. A drop form must be submitted first to the faculty or ensemble director, as appropriate, for their signature and approval. The second step is for the student to submit the signed drop form to the CSPA Registration Office for approval by the Dean. All Year-Long required registrations for the classes and ensembles listed below require a completed drop form to be submitted to the CSPA Registration Office within the formal drop period to avoid any further Spring Semester Tuition Charges. The ensembles and class that require year-long registration are as follows: Young Men's Chorus, Colburn Concert Choir, Colburn Chamber Singers, Introduction to Chamber Music, Ed and Mari Chamber Institute, Violin Ensemble, String Ensemble, String Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, Colburn Chamber Orchestra, Colburn Youth Orchestra, Monday Night Band, Thursday Night Band, Colburn Jazz Workshop Big Band, and all Music Theory Classes.

If the student misses a make-up lesson, there will be no second make-upopportunity. In cases of sudden illness on the part of the teacher, the teacher and The School shall make every reasonable attempt to notify students.
Suspension Delinquency in payment of tuition and fees may result in suspension of a student's enrollment.

There will be no credit or make-up for any lessons or classes missed because of suspension.

Upon approval of a payment plan, all payments are due on or before the 15th of the month. All payment plan arrangements must be made directly with the Cashier’s Office. Any payments received after the 15th will be automatically assessed a $25 late fee. Subsequent late fees will be charged every month until payment is received.

Key Card Access/Student ID BadgesIn an effort to enhance campus security, each family will be given two key cards to access the building at all times.

Please pay attention to posted signs and requests made by security guards to show your card key. Lost card keys can be replaced for a fee of $25.
Parking With a student population of 1,800 students, parking at the Colburn School is not guaranteed. A limited number of spaces are available to CSPA families on a first come first served basis. Families can receive up to two parking decals upon completing registration. However, a parking decal does not constitute a guaranteed parking space.

There is a loading area in front of the doors across from the Broad Museum. After dropping off your student, please make your way to Lower Grand and patiently wait in line for a parking space to open in the garage.
