Parent meeting on August 28th @ 6:30pm at the Studio.
Info and Reminders:
· No class on September 2nd for Labor Day
· Please join our BAND group if you haven’t already. If you need the link, please email the office. We will be using this group chat application to share important information and instructional videos.
· We ask that parents do not stay to watch their dancer. It is very difficult for our teachers to lead their class when the dancers are distracted. Teachers will also be uploading progress videos on the band app.
· Please be on time dropping off and picking up your dancer! Teachers have classes back-to-back and cannot watch kids left at the studio! If you will be late, please call, and let the office know.
· Tuition is due by the 1st of every month. $15 late fees will be posted on the 10th of each month for accounts not current. Enrollment in our autopay system is required for all tuition charges.
· A $5 processing fee is charged for any debit/credit card transactions (aside from our autopay system). We accept cash/checks to avoid this fee.
Dance attire:
· Dance attire this year will be ALL BLACK FOR ALL CLASSES! Please know that this will be strongly emphasized. We will be marking dancers dressed incorrectly as "absent" so please, please send your students in proper attire!
· Ballet attire is REQUIRED starting in September! Plan to keep pink tights, ballet shoes, and leotard in dancer's bags always.
· Baggy clothes are acceptable for hip hop class only.
· Don't forget to pull hair back securely and bring a water bottle!
Dance Bag items: Please help your dancer keep all of the below items in their bags at all times, so they’re always prepared!
· Please label EVERYTHING!
· Pink tights and ballet shoes
· Hip hop shoes
· Water bottles with a screw on lid only. Please no outside drinks to prevent spills.
· Lots of hair elastics, hair clips
· Snacks, please remind your dancer to clean up after themselves to help keep our studio clean
