Studio Policies
1. Tuition: is due on the 1st of every month. There is a grace period of 7 days. On day 8 you will be assessed a late fee of $10. If you are not current after 30 days then the student will not be permitted back in class until the outstanding balance is paid. Monthly tuition is always the same regardless of how many classes are offered in a particular month. Some months there will be 3 classes and some will have 5. This includes holidays which we will be closed Christmas, Spring Break, etc. We will have extra rehearsals for special events and our recital which we will not charge extra fees for, just your normal monthly tuition. Monthly tuition runs from September-June.
2. Payments: We accept checks, cash, debit, or credit cards. We also provide auto-pay this can be set up filling out the auto pay form on our website and contacting the front desk. Auto-pay will be run on the first of every month and will do so until a stop payment form or a drop slip is filled out and returned to the front desk. The stop payment form or drop slip must be filled out 30 days prior to stopping payment. If the form is not filled out your account will continue to be charged at the pre-approved amount. If the forms are not turned in 30 days in advance your account will be charged the pre-approved amount for 1 additional month after the forms are turned in. There is a fee of $35.00 for any returned check. There are NO refunds for any pre-paid tuition or fees. This includes costume deposits.
3. Attendance: It is very important that you show up to class on time and prepared every week. The students who come to class every week get much better results than those who do not attend class. If you are unable to attend we require that you call the studio ahead of time so we are aware. If you do not call and your child is not in class we will be calling you. If you need to make-up a class you may take a level above or below your class. The class must be made up within the month that it was missed. Dance is a disciplined art and it does require repetition to achieve optimal results.
4. Attire: Please review the attire list on the class pages located on our website for the correct attire for you students classes. Correct attire is required for all classes, this is part of the respect of the art as well as respect for the studio, teachers and other students. Students will be asked to leave if they do not have the proper attire. The proper attire is required to also help the student learn the art of dance properly so they can see what their bodies are doing and not have clothing interfering with the learning process. The proper attire for most classes can be purchased at the front desk. Do keep in mind shipping times my be involved so order early.
5. Private Classes: Any Students wishing to take a private class is urged to make a season long commitment. Please call or see the front desk to schedule.
6. Class Observation: Parents may watch class through the observation window. If students seem distracted by parents watching in the windows we do ask that parents move away as to not disrupt class. We do not have parents in the studio because it easily distracts the children as well as take away from the learning space needed for the students. You are welcome to come into the studio when the teacher opens the door for the last 5 minutes of every class.
7. Dropping a class: Please fill-out a drop class form 30 days prior to dropping a class. If you are signed up for auto-pay program payments will continue to be taken out of your account until a drop form is signed and returned to the front desk 30 days prior to dropping a class. If the form is turned in less than 30 days prior you will be charged the pre-approved amount 1 additional month after the form is turned in.
8. Information: There is a bulletin board in the lobby that will be updated with any pertinent information. (Please note it is the parents responsibility to read the board every week) We will also send out emails so make sure that you have your email listed on the bottom of this form or included in your registration information and it is always current. Please add Pamela Ann School of Dance to your contacts so we do not go into your junk mail. Pamela@PamelaAnnSchoolofDance.com
