Is there an end-of-program performance?
Parents will be invited for an informal observation period on the last day of class.
Why is class eligibility based on September 1, 2008 date of birth?
Eligibility in our school year program is based on a student’s age as of September 1st. We set our summer program age requirements based on the school year so that students may continue their ballet training with the same peer group.
Will there be a snack or bathroom break?
Students are permitted to use the bathroom facilities at any point during the course of the day. In the MetroWest and Boston studios, snack time will not be held. In the South Shore, students will have a scheduled break during which time they may eat a healthy snack from home. Snacks will not be provided. In consideration of other students, we request that you do not send your child with foods containing nuts!
Our summer plans have changed. How do I withdraw my child from your program?
Please contact the Office of Administration immediately at 617.456.6267 in order to make the necessary adjustments. All notices of intent to withdraw must be done in writing. Tuition is non-refundable after May 31, 2008 unless for medical reasons as documented by a physicians notice. A $50.00 Early Withdrawal fee will be charged for all withdrawals prior to May 31, 2008.
What is the Wait List policy?
Registrations are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. If the program has reached its maximum capacity when we receive your registration paper work, you will be notified by phone and/or email and placed on the waiting list. If a spot becomes available in the class, you will be notified and will have to confirm if you would like to join the class at that time. No money will be processed until you receive a place in the class.
My child is registered, what do we do on the first day of class?
We recommend that you arrive about 15 minutes prior to the start of class to give you and your child ample time to get ready for class. All children are encouraged to use the bathroom and wash their hands. In the MetroWest Studio, children should remain in the lobby and the instructor will collect them when it is time for class to begin. In Boston parents can drop-off and pick-up their child directly at the studio and the instructor will bring them into the studio when class begins. Boston and MetroWest parents are welcome to remain in the lobby during the class or get some fresh air and visit some of the local businesses. In Norwell parents may take their child directly to the studio. Norwell has a family friendly waiting room if parents choose to stay. All students should be picked up immediately following the end of class.
