Frequently Asked
Questions & Answers
HOW DO I CHOOSE
A CLASS?
Students are placed according to age
and ability. If at any time the teacher feels that the
placement is incorrect, you will be notified and the
situation will be rectified. The first priority is to place
children where they will progress, with the day and the time
of the class secondary. Please try to be flexible with
scheduling so your child can make the most of his or her
dance experience.
WHAT IF I MISS A
CLASS?
Good attendance is necessary to ensure
maximum progress in class. If an injury does not allow you
to take class, please come and watch. There are no refunds
for missed classes. Please phone The Dance Center when a
student will be absent and plan for a makeup class. If at
any time you wish to cancel your program, please extend us
the courtesy of a phone call or note. We do not re-register
each semester and will assume you are continuing if we do
not hear otherwise.
WHAT IS THE SNOW
DAY POLICY?
In case of inclement weather, forecasts
of large amounts of snow, or unsafe driving conditions,
please call The Dance Center one hour prior to your class to
check if classes have been cancelled. Miss Nancy will also
send out an email notifying you of a snow day. Updates about
cancelled classes are made regularly on our Facebook page.
WHAT ABOUT
RECITALS?
Our annual recital will be held June 7,
8 and 9, 2013 at Monty Tech in Fitchburg, MA. The Dance
Center has 2 day performances and 2 evening performances
allowing each student the opportunity of performing in 2
shows. After our December Holiday Break, students will be
notified which 2 shows they will perform in. Although it is
not mandatory, all students are encouraged to participate.
Students who do not participate will receive their regular
dance training and will not be excluded from their dance
class. There is a costume fee per class due in November with
the balance due in March. Please note that once the
commitment is made, there are no refunds. Costumes are
ordered early to ensure we receive them on time.
WHAT IF I AM
LATE TO CLASS?
Please plan to arrive at The Dance
Center early enough to be ready for the start of class(es).
Not only is it a matter of encouraging good manners and
responsible behavior, but lack of proper warm-up can lead to
unnecessary injuries. If you are late, please enter the
studio quietly.
WHERE DO I WAIT?
Parents and students are asked to sign
in at the front desk upon arrival to The Dance Center and
wait in each studios designated waiting area. No one is
allowed in the dance classroom without a teacher. Parents of
younger students are asked to wait with their student until
class begins.
DURING CLASS
Students are not allowed to enter or
leave the studio without permission of the teacher in charge
of their class. Parents, guardians and friends are not
allowed in the class.
AFTER CLASS
Students must wait in the waiting area
outside their dance classroom for a parent or guardian. For
safety reasons, students may not leave The Dance Center
without a parent or guardian.
