Programs
There will be two informal programs: a fall program in October and a Christmas program in December. Please feel free to bring cameras or video equipment to these programs. There will also be a formal recital in May.

Recital
Our formal recital is usually scheduled for a weekend in May. We begin setting choreography in January and consistent attendance during the 2^nd semester is imperative for a quality performance. A costume fee deposit of $25 per dancer will be due in October, with the remaining balance due in December. Costume prices range from $40-$50. Costumes are non-returnable and non-refundable. There is also a separate Recital Fee to cover the cost of auditorium rental, programs, tech crew, etc. that will be due in March.

Dropping/Adding a Class
If a student needs to withdraw from (or add) a class, an add/drop slip must be filled out. These can be found on the front counter.

Make-Up Classes/Absences
Tuition will not be adjusted based on the length of the month, absenteeism, school closures, vacations, holidays, or inclement weather. We will follow District 20’s schedule on snowy days- if there is a delayed start, we will have dancing. If school is cancelled, dancing will also be cancelled. If the weather is questionable, please call 445-9497 for a recorded message or check the website! Students may make-up at any age appropriate class at any time.

Private Lessons
Private lessons may be scheduled with instructors. Cost is $45/hr or $50/hr for semi-private (2-4 students split cost).

Returned Checks
If a check is returned, the amount of the check will be charged back to the account.  That amount, along with a $25 returned check fee, must be paid in cash or money order before the student returns to class.

Parental Supervision
Parents are responsible for and expected to supervise all siblings accompanying them at Turning Pointe Dance, LLC. Please ensure that you are on time when picking up your young children after class and that they are instructed to stay inside the studio until you arrive. It is also the responsibility of each student to pick up after themselves. Please do not leave any trash on the floor. It is everyone’s responsibility to help keep the studio clean, inside and out. Parents and siblings are not allowed in empty classrooms. Also no running or horseplay, which causes injury and disturbs classes.

Devotions and Creative Expression
Turning Pointe Dance is unique in the way that we begin all of our classes. Because our focus is on the Lord first, we begin with a brief prayer and devotion. A creative expression time is encouraged once a month to allow students to use the techniques learned in class or themes from class devotions to stimulate creativity. This time is dedicated at the beginning or end of a regular class.
