Students are NOT PERMITTED to have cell phones in dance class.

Closures
Call (719) 839-1038 to check if classes are cancelled due to bad weather. Your safety is very important to us and if the weather is questionable... stay home!

Costume Payments
Costume deposits are due in the amount of $25 per costume by October 1st. Costume balances are due by December 1st. Costumes WILL NOT be ordered for balances not paid in full by December 1. Special orders placed after this date will include a $20 HANDLING FEE.

Gum
Gum-chewing is not permitted in dance class.

Hair
Hair is expected to be pulled back out of the dancer’s face. Bangs are allowed to hang as long as they do not fall below the eyebrows.

Jewelry
Jewelry is not permitted in dance class.

Lobby Area
When arriving for class, students are asked to wait in the lobby area at the South Park Recreation Center until their class begins. All students are asked to arrive on time and be completely ready to begin class (with proper attire, hair and shoes). After class, students must remain in the lobby area until they are picked up after class.

Make-up Classes
If a student must miss a class for any reason, the student/parent must inform the studio before the class. Any student missing a class will have the opportunity to participate in a “make-up” class. Please avoid missing class. Your ABSENTEEISM HOLDS UP THE PROGRESS OF THE ENTIRE CLASS.

Parent Observation
Family and friends are invited to observe classes during “Parent Observation Week” held during the week of November 9th. We ask that those observing class show respect to instructors and students by remaining seated and quiet. Students look forward to showing you what they have learned thus far, but need to remain focused on the instructor to do so. You are welcome into class but please limit your visits to the classroom to offer the instructor quality time with your child. We encourage you to attend our observation week.

Recital
Our annual recital is a very rewarding and exciting time for all students. Each year's recital is held at the South Park School Auditorium in May, typically at 1pm and 7pm (subject to change). Most classes will perform their dance in our professional stage show. Each student is required to purchase a costume (and tights and proper dance shoes if needed). Professional dance pictures will be taken of dancers in costume during our dress rehearsal. Dress rehearsal is mandatory. You may video tape at the dress rehearsal ONLY. A professional video will be recorded at our recital for your purchase.

Registration Fee
The registration fee for the 2009-2010 dance year is $10 per student. This fee must be paid with the first tuition payment and is non-refundable.
