Recital
Our annual recital is held in June. This provides students
invaluable performance experience and a chance for students to
showcase what they've learned throughout the year. All students
participating in the recital are required to have a costume. The Dance Department and
its' teachers are not responsible for costume alterations.
Make-up Lessons & Inclement Weather
Please make every effort to attend class. Please notify the studio
in advance if you will be absent. Neither make-up lessons nor
refunds are given for student absence. In the event of an extended
absence, please discuss arrangements with your teacher. Make-up
lessons are only scheduled in the event of two cancellations
on the same lesson day, in which case one will be rescheduled.
Due to limited studio availability, the make-up lesson will be
scheduled on a weekend or during vacation week. To find out if
classes will be cancelled during inclement weather please check your email or Facebook.
No other notification will be given. Classes may be held even if school is cancelled!
