POLICIES AND GUIDELINES:
CLASS LEVEL
Dancers are placed in the level where the teachers believe their present capacities can be best honed. Placement & level classifications are a collaborative effort and are at the discretion of the Dance Creation Faculty. Primary factor for placement are skills and abilities of the student. Other factors considered are frequency, consistency, & number of years in training and ability.
ATTENDANCE
Dance Creation Studio will be open 10 minutes before the first class of the day. Students should arrive and be ready (meaning: hair, clothing, and shoes are on) to dance at least 10 minutes prior to their scheduled class time. Attendance will be taken at the start of each class.
It is very important not to be late. Students that are under the age of 8, should not be dropped off and left unattended for more than 10 minutes before class.
Consistent attendance is important as absences can hold back an entire class. We strongly encourage that students not miss any classes during the term since we do not provide refunds for any classes missed. In the case of classes offered twice a week, students may attend the other class as a make-up class.
CANCELLATIONS
STORM CLOSURE POLICY
For class cancellations due to weather, a decision will be made by 2PM on that day for weekdays and 7am on Saturdays. Students will be informed through email. This will also be posted on our Facebook page and website.
If no announcement is made, then classes will continue as scheduled.
We will make every effort to do a make-up class for classes that are cancelled by the studio. Students are also encourage to attend any classes within their age group and level during the week if the scheduled make-up class does not work for them.
In the event that the studio decides to stay open, we advise that you use your own discretion whether to come to class or not. Please advise the studio if you opt not to attend your class.
For all concerns, please call 506-383-1688 during regular office hours (Monday-Thursday 2pm-6pm and Saturday 9am-2pm) or send us an email or a private Facebook message.
DCS reserves the right to transfer, combine or dissolve any class.
