​ATTENDANCE/MAKE-UPS

Please notify the studio if your child will not be attending class so we can let their teacher know. Students who miss due to illness may attend another class at their approximate level for a make-up if one is available and class capacity permits. Once they are feeling better please reach out and we can help you find a make-up option. Classes can only be made up before recital routines are started. Tuition will not be adjusted for missed classes.

​

METHOD OF PAYMENT

Payments are made through the parent portal or by a check dropped off to the studio. You can sign up for Auto-pay on the portal so your payment will be automatically drafted on the first bussiness day of the month starting September 1st 2025 - June 1st 2026. If paying by check please make it payable to A Chance To Dance and put your dancers name in the memo. A $25 charge will be issued for a returned check. 

​

REHEARSALS AND RECITALS

Rehearsal and recital dates will be announced at a later date. All students are expected to attend rehearsals, the wintershow, and the June recital. There will be a $150 Recital fee per student that will be due April 1st, 2026. This fee helps to cover the cost of putting on 2 shows during our season and includes your child's commemorative show T-shirts, 2 VIP parent tickets, a recital award, and a professional video of the June show. Additional tickets will be on sale in the 2 weeks leading up to the shows while supplies last. More details on the Tuition & Fees page.

​

SAFER STUDIO POLICY

ACTD requires all staff and students to stay home when they are ill. Please do not come to dance if your child has cold or flu-like symptoms, with or without a fever. Please do not come to class with any contagious illness so we don't spread these around. Thank you for your help in keeping all of our children safe and healthy.
