Policies and Procedures

Tuition Options

 Registration requires a $20.00 registration fee for new students only. The first installment payment must accompany the registration form. Credit Card, Cash, or Check may be used for the first payment. Methods of tuition payment for the semester after the first installment are as follows: 

• Pay in full with 2 free weeks
  
• Automatic withdrawal, called ACH. An ACH form must be completed and submitted with the registration form if you choose this option. Your checking or savings account number, routing number, and a voided check are needed to complete this form. Any changes in classes or termination, will require a completed addendum to the original form as well as a 2 week notice, to cease or change payment amount throughout the semester. 

Tuition Calculation

The tuition for the full semester is based on the number of classes in that 9 month semester multiplied by the class rate and divided into 9 monthly installments for your convenience. It is not based on the number of weeks in a month. Therefore, some months might only have 3 classes, and some might have 5 classes. This has no bearing on the amount of tuition. 

Dancewear

Proper dancewear and shoes must be worn at all times. Dancewear will only be sold in the beginning of the semester at our open house. Shoes may ordered throughout the year with orders going in on the 1st & 15th of each month.

Missed Classes

No refunds or reductions are given for absenteeism. Due to the volume of students enrolled, we cannot offer make up classes. Any student missing 3 classes in a row will be considered terminated, unless proper notification was given. Without proper notification, the ACH payment will continue. 

Studio Cancelled Classes

In the event the studio cancels classes due to inclement weather or teacher illness, the class will be given a make up day & time.

Termination

There is a 2 week termination notice that must be given in order to terminate or cancel a student's participation in class. As mentioned above, without the proper notice, the ACH monthly tuition withdrawal will continue until such a notice is given.

Performance Classes

Fall semester classes are considered performance classes which means that participation in the annual recital is mandatory. This will entail the purchase of a recital costume.
Current costs are as follows:

• $70.00 for ages 4 and under
• $75.00 for ages 5 and up

Payment must be received by the announced deadline in order to receive the costume in time for the show. This also is the year for our Christmas Show. Costumes costs and show date are TBA. All costume purchases are non-refundable.

Sibling or Multiple Class Discounts

For the full 9 month semester, discounts are as follows: 

• 1st class - Full tuition rate 
• 2nd class or sibilng - $8.00 discount 
• 3rd class or sibling - $12.00 discount 
• 4th class or sibling - 50% off discount 
• 5th class or sibling - Free 

Additional classes would start at the 2nd level and continue through the format.
