Drop-off and pick-up

Students should arrive no earlier than 15 minutes before class begins. We cannot be responsible for children left unattended. Children under the age of 10 should not be left unattended in the lobby. Please do not allow children to run through the lobby, stand on the furniture or enter the dance studio before their class time. Also, please pick up your child promptly when their class is completed. Students should wait inside the lobby for their ride to arrive.

Storm days and cancellations

Dance classes are not cancelled for school holidays. In the case of bad weather, assume there is class unless the area schools close. Classes cancelled by KHSD for any reason are made up at a scheduled time. Studio closings will be announced on the website, on our Facebook page, and local news websites.

Class Attendance

There are no refunds for missed classes. If your dancer decides that they are going to drop a class, you must notify Kate prior to the start of the month or you will be responsible for paying tuition for that month. If your child drops a class in the middle of the month, you are responsible for paying for the entire month. Tuition is not prorated.

Classroom Rules

Cell phones are not permitted inside the studio.
Street shoes are not permitted on the dance floor.
No chewing gum in class.
No food or drink, other than water, is allowed in the classroom. Please do not send sports drinks, pop, juice, etc. to dance class.

Costumes for the spring recital will be purchased in November and December. Cost of costumes will vary from $50 up to $90 per costume.
