General Policies and Procedures
ATTENDANCE
Regular attendance is essential for a dancer to show progress. It is also much appreciated by the staff and the rest of the class if all dancers arrive on time. Please refer to 2019- 2020 calendar dates that the studio will be closed during the season.
MISSED CLASSES
If a student misses a class, a phone call would be appreciated. A student's absence from class does not reduce the cost of operating the class for that day nor for operating the studio in general. Therefore, credit cannot be given for missed classes. Monthly class fees are required regardless if a student misses classes. This program isn’t a month-to-month program but a seasonal program that operates from November through June. Class fees are due by the 1st Saturday of each month in order for a student to participate in the class.

The proper dress codes must be followed to ensure the safety of the students, as well as to permit the teacher an unobstructed view of the dancer to ensure the techniques are being learned.
