Level Placement Policy
|
|
We try to keep consistency in class levels according to ability, technique, attitude, attendance and physical readiness. Dancers may be moved to other classes if their instructor feels it necessary and if it is in the best interest of the dancer. Please do not request class changes be made so that students can be with their friends. Please respect the instructors decision as to where each student is placed.

Class Policy
|
|
The studio reserves the right to cancel/combine classes due to low enrollment or split classes due to high enrollment. You will be notified of any changes. Students must be 3 years old by December of the enrolling year and must be potty trained. Students are expected to conduct themselves in a respectful and disciplined manner at all times. Excessive talking, disrespectful, or inappropriate behavior may result in the student being asked to leave a class. The studio reserves the right to dismiss a student for inappropriate behavior. Good attendance is mandatory if a student wishes to participate in the recital or any other performances.

After class, all students need to stay in the building until their ride arrives. Please call if your child is going to be late or absent or if their ride is going to be late. Be respectful of other students before and after your class. Inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated in the waiting room!
