• Please put your child’s name on the bottom left side of your check.

• We are not responsible for post-dated checks.

• If for some reason your child has to drop out before the term is out, the school requires a 60 day notice in writing and the next month’s tuition is to be paid.  (Example: Susie drops in December, January and February’s tuition must be paid.)

• Accounts with a balance of more than $200.00, or accounts past due longer than 60 days will result in the nonparticipation of that student in classes until the tuition is paid. 
• In the event of extreme weather, natural disasters, or government-mandated shutdowns we reserve the right to provide and will provide zoom classes.  Enrollment, payment, and withdrawal policies will apply.

Special Notices

• Regular attendance is essential to a student’s progress in dance. Students who are frequently absent will continually struggle to advance. Good attendance is imperative, as absences and tardiness can hold back an entire class. Please be advised that the studio cannot jeopardize the responsibilities to the rest of the class for one student. Please make every effort to have your child in every class.
• Awards are given for five, ten, and fifteen-year students. Please let the office know the first week of class.
• Please discuss with your child before classes begin that it is important for them to finish what they start. The job of getting your child to class is sometimes the hardest part, but once you get your child to class they will enjoy themselves as well as learn.
• Bathroom Policy - All students should use the restroom before class. We cannot let every child leave class to go to the restroom.  Preschoolers should have an extra set of clothes in their dance bag for emergencies.
• Class Placement – Students will be placed with respect to potential and proficiency by Miss Debbie and the instructors. We reserve the right to place students by ability and not the total number of years taken. Students will not be placed in a friend’s class because of car pools, etc., unless each has the same level of ability.
• Make up days are available for holidays year round.
• Observation Windows - Observations windows will be open from September through December at the teacher's discretion.
• The studio cannot be responsible for children left after class or children that have been dropped off early. We also ask that siblings please not be dropped off at the studio unsupervised.
• We are not responsible for teenagers that drive or who know students that drive and leave the premises.
• Please try to be prompt if your child is in the last class of the day. Instructors will wait for 15 minutes after class. Please call us if you have an emergency and we will be glad to keep your child in the studio until you can arrive.
• The studio is not responsible for children once they leave the studio premises.
• It is illegal to double park by order of the fire and police department. Please do not double park.

Inclement Weather Policy
When the public schools close due to weather, the studio will also close. In case of inclement weather (hurricane season) classes will resume as soon as the dance studio has power. Please call the studio at (251) 633-9559 or check our Facebook page or emails for updated information about when the studio opens. We do not prorate tuition for the days that holidays or weather events fall on.
