If the Framingham Public Schools cancel school for reasons such as snow or other inclement weather, the dance school will also cancel all classes that start before 3:00 PM.

Weekend classes must call the studio to check for cancellations. Call 508-875-2723.
RECITAL & COSTUME FEES:
There is an Annual Recital in June at the end of each school year. Participation is not
mandatory, but encouraged. Students participating in the Recital must purchase a
costume for each class that they are performing with. Costumes fees are non-refundable
and generally cost ~$45-$65 each. A $30 Deposit for each is due by December 1, 2010.
The balance for each costume is due by February 1, 2010.
Students who drop class after a deposit has been made, are still responsible for paying
the costume balance.
Participation in the Recital cannot be guaranteed for students who register late or have
an excessive amount of unexcused absences. Upon Director's approval, private lessons
may be arranged and scheduled according to teacher availability.
STUDENT ENROLLMENT:
Enrollment is ongoing throughout the year, however, limitations may apply.
With director and teacher approval, students may join a level-appropriate class if there
are openings. Class size is limited, therefore early registration is recommended and
placement cannot be guaranteed.
CLASS PLACEMENT:
It is most important that students be placed in a class with a level that is most suitable for
them (age is secondary to level). Please respect teacher recommendations and
understand that appropriate
placement greatly benefits the student and is in their best interest.
DRESS CODE:
Dress code is beneficial to the dance student. If the instructor cannot see the dancer,
then the instructor cannot properly and safely train the dancer.
