These holidays are not necessarily the same as any school system, so please mark them on your calendar.
If schools are closed due to inclement weather, please call the Dance School one hour prior to scheduled class time to find out if classes are being held.  The Dance School does not close for Teachers Work Days.  If ever in doubt, call one hour before class.

A Make-Up Class is held for students who missed a class due to sickness.  These classes will be held about once every two months.  The day and time will be announced and you must sign up in advance to attend.
Your attendance is very important to us.  It is our policy to call your home if you are absent from class.  Please call the Dance School one hour before class, if you are not going to be in attendance that day.

The School reserves the right to alter class schedules for any reason, either temporarily or permanently, without fault.

The School reserves the right to drop registrant from their registrar for:
a) Excessive lateness and/or absence
b) Disruptive behavior
c) Non-payment of tuition or other charges

Every effort will be made to place each student in the class they will accomplish the most.  This may involve some rescheduling at the beginning of the term.  I will work with your child to make this a good year of fun and learning.
