The dance year is divided into two semesters and the tuition for each semester is due on or before the first class of each semester. It is your responsibility to pay your fees on time. Reminder notices of due dates will be posted at the studio and will be included in newsletters and on this website. Statements are not sent out until your account is past due.
Accounts that are not paid 25 days past the Semester start date will be assessed a $25.00 billing fee and students will be suspended from class until the account is current. This policy will be strictly enforced. Please make sure that you are financially able to commit to this dance program before registering. Payments can be made with check, cash or credit card (Mastercard or Visa only). If paying by credit card, you must make payment during hours when studio secretary is on duty, instructors cannot handle credit card transactions. There will be a $35.00 fee for returned checks, and you must make all subsequent payments in cash.
Attendance is crucial in the progress of the class and the dancer. Dancers are allowed to miss no more than 3 classes per semester for any reason. Anyone missing more than this amount will be subject to dismissal from class. Students need to consider their other activities/work schedules before making a commitment to dance. There are no makeup lessons or prorated tuition for missed classes.
All students must be properly dressed for class. Students that are improperly dressed will be asked to sit out of class.
