Selecting Prizes for Points Earned.

The prize levels and the points needed to attain those levels are currently as follows:

• FAM will verify a student’s point value before shipping the prize.
• All orders for prizes must be submitted by the Students or their Parents to the front desk by the final day of every month. Prizes will be given at the student’s lesson.  The student’s phone number must be included in case of any discrepancies with the order. Fontaine Academy of Music will use reasonable efforts to process and deliver prizes in an expeditious manner.
