NEW RECITAL VENUE
THANK YOU- St. Patrick’s Day Spirit Week
We wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their generosity when it comes to the scholarship donations through spirit weeks and water sales. We have raised hundreds from each spirit week thus far which will go a long way for our students on scholarship. Each year, only some of the scholarship applicants are awarded funds based on their financial needs and the amount we have raised that season. However, every year since this started back in 2018, we have been able to accept more and more students on scholarship and for that, we truly THANK YOU ALL!
Absences & NEW TARDY POLICY
We just wanted to remind everyone about the attendance policy
PLUS A NEW TARDY POLICY EFFECTIVE 3/1/24:
“Once your child has 12 UNEXCUSED absences they will NO LONGER BE ABLE TO PERFORM IN RECITAL, regardless if you have already purchased the costume or any items associated with Recital. Beginning 3/1/24, three tardies will now count as an unexcused absence!”
Tardies disrupt the overall productivity of the class. It is a struggle for our instructors to constantly redirect students and get others up to speed when students are habitually arriving late for class. The first few minutes of every class are just as important as the last! Please keep our new tardy policy in mind in order to avoid your child losing their opportunity to perform in recital. We will start contacting people who are close to the limit but you can also check your portal online.
