Policies Below you will find some information about N-Step that has been compiled to help you familiarize yourself with our facilities and policies. • Based on your child’s age and ability level, they will be placed into the appropriate class. Although age is a consideration, please understand that all children learn at different paces so we make decisions on placement based on their ABILITY. • The placement is done to maximize your child’s learning experience as well as build upon their individual skills. • In order for your child to advance to the next level, they will need to demonstrate the ability to perform the curriculum at their existing level. • As a parent I know how easy it is to compare your child to another child, especially if they are the same age. PLEASE respect the recommendations of the teachers as we will make an unbiased decision as to what level is best for your child’s success and confidence. • We reserve the right to move your child up or down a level through the course of the 1st half of the year, based on the progression of their ability level. If your child was to change levels, it would be done by the beginning of January.
• We have implemented a dress code for several reasons. First and most importantly so that the dancer will be able to move and dance without restriction or distraction. • The Dress Code will be strictly enforced. If your child is not in dress code, they will be asked to leave the classroom until they have outfitted themselves in the correct attire. This is not to punish the child but to enforce uniformity among the students and show a respect for the art.
• Due the 1st of every month. You may pay by check, cash, or for your convenience, set up an automatic payment by EFT, via Debit Card, MasterCard, Visa or Discover! Failure to pay tuition by the 5th will result in an automatic $25 late fee. • Tuition rates are based the number of weeks in the year not the number of classes in each month. The tuition rate will remain the same if your child has 3 classes or 5 classes in any given month. We divide the tuition payment into equal monthly payments to avoid any confusion. • If you owe more than 2 months tuition, your child will not be allowed to participate in class/rehearsals/performances until payment arrangements have been made. This policy is not set forth to punish the child but to ensure the payment of services that have been rendered. • All monies paid are non-refundable. If at any point you terminate enrollment at N-Step Dance Center, you need to submit a written notice 30 days before cancellation. You are responsible for tuition up to the last day of enrollment. If you do not submit a 30 day notice you are still responsible for tuition until one is given and/or the 30 days is up.
• We will be offering private lessons in the following dance styles: o Tap, Ballet, Jazz, Turns and Leaps, Lyrical and Pointe • If you are interested in your child participating in a private lesson, please see Jackie to schedule a date and time. Private lessons must be paid for before scheduling a date. • Pricing for private lessons is as follows: o $35 for 30min o $55 for 1hr
• It is very important for your child to have good attendance. Each class is a building block for the next and in order for your child to get the most out of their dance education it is important to arrive on time and have minimal absences. • When your child is absent it affects the rest of the class. Formations are affected and your child has to “catch up” on skills that were missed the week before. Please be sure to plan all other activities accordingly to minimize conflicts. • It is important to be in class when choreography for the Holiday and Recital performances is being taught so that your child will be as prepared and confident as possible.
• You would not be happy if your child caught a virus from a sick child at the studio so we ask that you have the same mindfulness when it comes to bringing your child that might be sick. If your child is ill, please call the studio so that we can let the teacher know not to expect your child. • Please do not send your child to the studio if they have a temperature or have thrown up. Much like school policies, your child must be fever free for 24 hours before returning to class. IF YOUR CHILD DID NOT ATTEND SCHOOL DUE TO ILLNESS, PLEASE DO NOT SEND THEM TO THE STUDIO! • You are always welcome to make-up any missed class at your convenience.
• If your child is ill and will not be in class, please call the studio and leave a message no later than 2pm. This allows time for the teacher to alter any class plans if need be. • If you know in advance of an absence, please enter it in the Absentee Book.
• If the studio is closed due to inclement weather, cancelations will be posted on the studio website, Facebook, and on the voicemail by 8am for morning classes and 2:00pm . • Please feel free to make up any classes canceled due to snow. No refunds will be given for snow cancelations.
• All levels with the exception of the Tiny Tots will be in our Holiday Show. Costumes for classes will consist of “holiday themed attire”. Requirements will be handed out by each teacher well in advance. • All classes will participate in the year end recital, which is typically held in June. • $40 costume deposit/class will be due by Friday, October 21st. The costume balance is due Friday, November 18th. • Costume prices for the year-end recital are based upon the Level class that your child is in. Tiny Tots & PreDance classes will pay $65/costume for the Recital (tights included). KinderCombo will pay $90 for their costume for the Recital as they will have a "2 in 1" costume, for the 2 dances that they will be in (tights included). Level 1 & up will pay $80/costume for the Recital (tights included).
DISCARD POLICY
• N-Step Dance Center reserves the right to refuse business to anyone. • The studio reserves the right to cancel the enrollment of a child for the following reasons: Non-payment or excessive late payment of fees, not observing the rules and/or policies of the studio, physical and/or verbal abuse of staff or children, by a parent or child.
• Please try to remind your child to try to go to the bathroom before class begins. Experience says that once one child has to go, they all have to go! • Please do not use your cell phone in the lobby. For the comfort of others and so that you and the other parents can enjoy watching the children dance, we kindly ask that you take any lengthy phone calls in the hall. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY
Enjoy your children and the experience that you have allowed them to have. As a parent myself, I know that sometimes we can get caught up in what "all the other kids" are doing, who is taking what class, etc. Ultimately, what the kids care about is that they get to see their friends each week, that they have fun in class while learning new things, and that they get to perform onstage! Sometimes it is just that simple! And you need to enjoy it while you can. All too soon it will be your child up on stage being announced as the graduating senior and you will be wishing that you could whisk her back to the days of fixing her ballet bun or tying his tap shoes. Again, thank you for choosing N-Step Dance Center. We look forward to working with you and your child. Let’s make it a great year and know that my door (email, cell phone, etc!) is always open to your comments or questions. And remember, if you want to dance, dance N-STEP!
