THERE IS CLASSES APRIL VACATION
This year the recital is on Saturday May 17, 2008--so you know in advance --Let sport coaches know that you will miss for my practice
Classrooms & parents--No parent should enter the classroom once the door is shut . If a parent is needed, I, or one of my assistants will get a parent. Parents of new little ones under age 6 may come into the classroom the first 1-3 weeks. Once October comes, if this is a habit being formed we will work together to “wean” parent and child. By November the strings should be broken if not then maybe we should wait a year. Tot classes included.
Drop off/pick-up--Parents need to be aware of when class starts and ends for proper timing. Student’s 15 minutes or more late will not be able to take class-due to time missed for safe warm-ups. However they may still come in and watch the combinations. If a parent is to be late let us know we do not mind an occasional babysitting---ABSOLUTELY NO DANCER IS ALLOWED OUTSIDE in Parking Lot area TO WAIT. If You allow --We are no longer Responsible!!!!!
CELL PHONES for dancers are not on ever in class--PARENTS call business phone if need to contact them.
Phone/Desk--Phone is business but all welcomed to use if need too.--
The desk is closed to all except staff of CCDC please respect this.
Hair-- Must be back in a ponytail/bun/braid(s) No headbands or bandannas alone to hold hair off face--the use of a hair schrunchie only is not acceptable either. No hair back no dance class --dancer will sit and watch.
Attire--Leotards, tights, are expected on all (not adults or boys) Boys--sweat pants/shorts /wind pants and t-shirts that are plain or a CCDC shirt--we have special boy colors of Black with gold for the logo.
Girls may wear skirts in all classes . Jazz/dance pants are to be cotton and can only be worn in jazz and tap warm-up time. You will be asked to take then off combination/choreography time.
Behavior--It is expected that once entered the studio there will be no profanity. Behavior/attitude towards all helpers/staff will be respectful to everyone--NO GUM at all. No smoking on the premises.
Lobby/kitchen/waiting areas--are to be kept clean and trash disposed of properly. No food or drink in viewing area! Snacks and drinks are to be in the kitchen area only. CORRECT change for food and drinks this year will be needed--.50 cents for snacks and .75 for soda. We cannot supply change this year as in years past. Cubbies are in lobby for all personal items and shoes. Bring all dance shoes with you when you enter your first class.
Parking--we have 5 spaces in front and unlimited across the way. PLEASE avoid parking before 5pm in front of the other businesses. THEY WILL CALL OR TOW YOU.
Shoes--All shoes need to have the dancer’s name on them and be carried in a dance bag of some sort--.Proper shoes must be obtained by January . This means if you are in a black shoe but need tan it needs to be ordered in December. We no longer use tap shoes with laces all shoes will have a strap/buckle---faux buckles may be purchased for $5 a pair. New shoes are $20 for those students whom are in the black patent leather style Preschool--primary level (1st grade and under). We will only do trade for trade on shoes, but not the lace style. All jazz shoes must be of boot style --again no more laces to tie at studio.
