ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance
Class Make-Ups
- Students should arrive at the studio 5-10 minutes before class begins to allow time for changing into class attire. If possible, dancers should arrive with dance clothes under their street clothes.
- Tardiness is disruptive to both the students and the instructor. Please make every effort to arrive on time for class.
- Students who have cold symptoms or fever will not be permitted to enter the building.
- If the student is injured and cannot dance, he or she is encouraged to come and observe.
- Please text or email the studio if the student will be absent.
- During the second semester, students are encouraged not to miss classes.
- Repeated absence indicates a lack of interest in the student's dance education. However, we understand that there may be extenuating circumstances, such as sickness or family emergency, which cause students to miss class.
- If the student misses 2 or 3 classes in a row, the instructor may recommend that the student attend a private lesson to learn the choreography he or she missed while being out. A fee for private lessons will be imposed at $30 per 30 minute private lesson or $50 per hour, payable in cash prior to the lesson.
- To participate in the spring recital, students must attend at least one of the rehearsals.
- In the event of withdrawal, the student will be charged for classes up to the date that written notification of withdrawal is received (either in person or email).
Class Make-Ups
- Make-up dance classes are available for students whose tuition is up to date.
- To make up a missed class, the student may attend the same style of class one level down, or the student may observe a higher level class.
- Please schedule all make-up classes at the studio reception desk.
