Policy Information for families

Dear Parents,

Our staff is committed to creating meaningful and engaging experiences for our students while maintaining the highest standards of health and safety. We are so excited to be teaching, creating, and hosting performances this year!

CLASS SIZES / VISITORS

All classes are in-person with an option to Zoom in remotely, and class sizes are limited. The lobby is now open to visitors during weekly classes. We encourage parents and caregivers to drop off and pick up, and wear masks in the lobby. 

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Masks are optional for in-person classes. Our staff is fully vaccinated and we will continue to use social distancing, hand cleaning, air purification and steam mopping to mitigate the spread of any airborne or surface viruses and bacteria.

If your child is absent he/she/they are welcome to take a make-up class with any class in the same age range. Additionally, we have pre-recorded classes for students to take as a make-up. We do not pro-rate for missed classes or closures due to inclement weather.

Students should be timely to class, prepared mentally and physically to participate, and wearing appropriate dress for class. Students are expected to participate fully in class unless they are ill or injured. Students should raise a hand to be called on and give their teacher full attention and speak respectfully in class, encouraging peers and leading by example.

Food, gum, jewelry, and cell phones are not allowed in the dance studio. Students should not be in the dance studio without instructor permission.
