Attendance & Snow Days

Arrive on time; notify us (call, BAND, or Facebook message) if you will be late or absent.
Essential that students attend regularly so they don’t hold the class back.
If a student misses more than 8 classes in the dance year, they may not be allowed to perform in the recital.
No make‑up classes for regular absences.

Cancellations are announced via BAND, Facebook, and email.
If unsure, check one of those sources.
We allow 1 snow day for the year; additional snow days may be made up with a class.
