Policies
Placements
Students will be placed in classes that are appropriate for their level of physical development and maturity. Placement decisions are made by the Director and are final.
Please respect the placement of your student by their instructor. As each student’s development is different, students and parents should expect to spend at least two years at each level.
Absences
If your child is going to be absent, please call the school, as email may not be checked before class starts.
Make-up Lessons
Make-up lessons are offered for absence due to illness and must be used within one month of absence. Tuition credit is not given in place of make-up lessons. Please call the school when you are going to be absent. Snow days are factored into the tuition, however if you wish to make up a class, you may do so in the same level or with approval from your current teacher.
Private Lessons
Private lessons are available and must be arranged through the office administrator.
Closings
If the school closes due to inclement weather, an email will be sent out and sometimes we will post on Facebook or the website.
Notices
Notices will be posted at the studio as well as emailed to our families. Please check to make sure your email address is on file as this will be our main form of communication.

We strive to maintain a professional atmosphere for our students, therefore our dress code will be enforced at all levels and styles.
