Tired of wondering what to do with younger siblings while you wait?? No longer a problem…bring them along for playtime in our child-friendly waiting area – they’ll love it and you can sit back and enjoy your dancer’s day at class!

Tuition Fees & Policy:

See Schedule for Fall 2011 for specific monthly class tuition.
As always, we encourage you to contact us directly at 781-258-6807 for any questions anytime throughout the year. But to help you begin your dance year with us, here are some general policies:

CALENDAR: We generally follow the WAKEFIELD public schools as far as holidays, vacations, snow days, etc. but we will distribute an official calendar to every student during the first month of classes.

ATTENDANCE: Clearly we encourage good attendance as it certainly helps our dancers to grow & learn – however, we do not reward or punish dancers based on attendance. If your child is absent for longer than 2 weeks in a row, please contact us to let us know that they are still coming back. We hold a spot for every child registered and unless we hear from you directly, we assume your child will return to class when able.

TUITION: Tuition is due on the first lesson of every month if you have not paid for the year in full in advance.

Tuition is divided up into 9 EQUAL monthly payments (Sept. - May) based on the full dance year. Tuition DOES NOT CHANGE monthly based on the number of classes that fall within that month. You are responsible for all tuition payments until you notify us by telephone or email that your child has decided not to return. We continue to hold a spot for every student each month unless otherwise notified and therefore tuition is due until we are notified of your child’s termination. We cannot adjust tuition based on absences for any reason and we do not refund monthly tution in the event you decide to no longer take a class - you are welcome to finish the month that you have paid for. Every student is welcome to make up dance time in a class of a similar age group at a time convenient for the parent/student – simply notify your teacher and they can help you choose an appropriate time to make up for absences. NOTE: As we are finalizing our recital date for 2012, we will be open into June this year for classes. Each student will be required to pay 1/2 of their monthly tuition for June – due at the end of May - even if you have paid for your full year in advance, June is additional. There is a $10 late fee for tuition payments made after the 10th of each month and there is a $35 returned check fee on all payments returned by our bank.

PRE-PAYMENT SAVINGS!!!:
Pay in full for the year by September - get ONE MONTH FREE! (multiply your monthly tuition by 8 months instead of 9 - May is free! Payment must be presented to us in September!) Reminder - June is an additional 1/2 month payment due at the end of May. (If you pay for the year in advance and then your child decides to no longer take their class - we DO REFUND you for the unused portion of your tuition less a $20 administrative fee.)

FAMILY DISCOUNT!!:
For families with more than one child and/or one child that takes more than one class – our discount allows you to deduct $10 from your monthly total!

Recital tickets will be $15 for our show in 2012; DVD purchase price will remain at $29 for 2012; and finally, costume fees will be $60 per child/per class for the 2012 recital as well (costume fees will be due the first week in December).
