• Every month you or your child will receive a monthly newsletter containing important information in regard to the coming month’s activities at City Stage Dance Academy. You are responsible for all the information in the newsletters.
• It is imperative that all students dress properly for dance classes. Students coming straight from school or work should carry their dance attire and shoes with them and change in the dressing room before class begins. Any student not following the dress code will not be allowed to take class. Please refer to the “Class Descriptions” tab to find the correct attire for each class.
• If your child misses a class due to sickness or studio closure, you can utilize the makeup schedule accordingly. Refunds will not be given for missed classes. City Stage Dance Academy has a no refund policy. Studio credit can be given when applicable at the director’s discretion.
• Parents will not be allowed to sit inside the dance rooms during class. Since children are easily distracted, we keep the door closed so they are more likely to pay attention to the teacher.
• Pre-School Students: Parents will be allowed to stay in dance room for the first couple weeks, if necessary. If pre-school students are still crying after the first month the child will have to be removed from the program since crying becomes contagious! This is nothing to be ashamed of or concerned about… it just means that your child is not ready for this type of program.
• For your child to progress in our dance program, it is very important that they have a good attendance record. If your child has a long illness or if you will be away on vacation and your child will miss more than two classes please call the studio. If your child is persistently absent they may have to be removed from the program.
• Students MUST BE ON TIME for class. If a student is going to be late, please call the front desk to let their teacher know. The teacher has the right to not let a student in if they are more than 10 minutes late for class unless previously notified.
• NO FOOD OR DRINKS ARE ALLOWED IN THE STUDIO OTHER THAN WATER BOTTLES. ABSOLUTELY NO SNACKS OF ANY KIND ARE ALLOWED
• We are not responsible for your lost or misplaced articles.
• On days when there is severe weather and the studio will be closed, we will send an email, post on our social media pages, leave a message on our answering machine, and send a message via our City Stage app to let everyone know we are closed.
• City Stage Dance Academy reserves the right to use any photographs or videos that are taken during class or performances of students who attend the studio for use advertising or marketing in print, broadcast, digital or internet formats.
• We always insist on respect for teachers and secretaries. Any complaints will be heard if done in a respectful manner. We will not tolerate any unruly behavior. If there is an issue, please make an appointment with studio director and she will be glad to hear any questions or complaints.
• If for any reason a student drops out of program before the end of the season, costume and tuition up to the date of student’s last class MUST BE PAID IN FULL. No refunds will be given. Studio credit can be given when applicable.

*These are the rules of our dance studio. If you or your child fails to follow these rules, you may be removed from the dance program*
