Classes will begin in September and are based on the nine months of the school year. Most months will have four lessons. Some months may have 5 lessons, while others may have 3 lessons. At the end of the year, students will complete 34 lessons. The recital performance is considered the 34th week. Recitals are usually held during mid-May.
Class Attendance
Attending class regularly is important to any program in order to learn properly. If you miss class due ti an illness, make-up classes may be arranged. No refunds are given for classes missed. However, the student will be encouraged to attend another class to make-up for the missed class. We do expect to be notifiied if a student is going to be absent from class. We do encourage that missed lessons are made up within a week to 10 days, to ensure consistent strength. Please note that absences after March 1st jeopardize the quality of the dance recital numbers. Please make every effort to maintain 90 percent attendance in your registered class to participate in the recital; this especially pertains to grades 3 and above.
INCLEMENT WEATHER
If school is dismissed due to weather, no classes will be held that day. Make-up days will be scheduled by the teacher.
DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES
We reserve the right to dismiss any student who is or becomes a discipline problem.
