We
are a dance studio run in a professional manner with professional dance studio standards.
Our reputation depends on it and you wouldn’t
want it any other way.
Our policies are pretty simple but really help to keep the studio "dancing along"
smoothly. Thank you for becoming familiar with them.
STUDIO HANDBOOKS
We mail a studio handbook packet to all registered dancers aroung August 1st. Our goal is to provide
you with a comfortable, stress free dance season. We know that many families are new to the dance studio experience and may
not be sure what to expect. The goal of our studio handbook is to help you become familiar with the dance studio guidelines
and policies that help to keep us all on our toes. Payment information, due dates and a class schedule will be included with
the handbook.
"STUDIO
NEWS AND ALL THAT JAZZ"….A DANCIN’ PLUS NEWSLETTER
We believe everyone appreciates being part of a well organized studio, one that keeps you informed. In addition
to our studio handbook, we email you a notice when newsletters are added to our website. By reading the information
and keeping the newsletters handy you are sure to be stay up to date on studio happenings.
TUITION
Tuition includes your class
payment as well as costume costs for the spring productions. This makes it easy for you to budget! This allows
you to divide costume fees into payments AND will eliminate the chance of you forgetting to make a costume payment.
I always feel bad when parents forget and it is too late to get a costume ordered. Problem solved!
Tuition is due no later than the 10th of
the month in September, October, November, December, January and February. Due dates are listed on the inside cover
of the studio handbook. Reminders are listed in the studio newsletter. Due dates will also be posted on the
PAY ONLINE page of our website. Because we provide you with this information well in advance, no other reminder statements
are sent. This system allows us to keep YOUR costs down.
Please add a $20.00 late fee if you choose to not make your payment the week it is due.
Accounts past due more than 15 days will result in your dancer being excused
from class until your account is brought up to date.
Dancin' Plus reserves the right to refuse service/discontinue monthly payment options and require payment
in full for classes due to multiple past due payments.
We can accept credit
and debit cards through our online payment service on our website.
You do not need to have a Paypal account to pay online. You do not need to register for
a Paypal account to use your credit or debit card. We have a payment dropbox inside the studio for check or cash
payments.
If paying with cash,
please put the exact amount in an envelope marked with your child's name. There is a $35.00 fee for checks returned by your bank.
Thank you for paying on time. It is appreciated!
DANCE ATTIRE
Please see DRESS CODE page for class attire.
CLASS ABSENCES
Because we limit class sizes and a place is reserved for you, we do not issue refunds for missed classes.
We understand that a dancer may occasionally miss class and we take that into consideration when we set our
prices for the season.
WHEN YOU ARRIVE FOR CLASS
Please arrive 5-10 minutes before your
class time. Arrive dressed for class. We do not have changing rooms.
Unless you are the first
class of the day, a class will be in session when you arrive.
Once that class is dismissed your
class will take take the floor.
WEATHER CLOSURES
In the event of snowy weather, dance classes will be canceled if Fairmont Public Schools are canceled for
the day or dismissed early. Listen to 106.5fm for the public school cancellations. You can also view dance class cancellations
on our website at www.dancin-plus.com. If the weather turns nasty AFTER classes have begun for the day, the studio
will remain open for those that can make it. Each class is allowed two snow days. For classes with more than two,
we will reschedule in the spring. HELPFUL
HINTS
Please pick your child up promptly
following their class. As classes run back to back (no teacher break inbetween) children being picked up late
are unsupervised.
Mark your dance
bag and dance shoes with your full name. Please do not use only initials. Many students have identical
initials!
No food, candy or gum in the studio. Covered bottles of water are allowed.
Leave toys and valuables at home. Dancin’ Plus is not responsible
for misplaced items.
