Payments:
All tuition fees must be paid for via credit or debit card. Southern Grace Dance Co. will not accept any other form of payment. Upon registering for classes, you will input your payment information and it will be stored securely. On the 1st of every month your card will be charged.
If payment is declined, we offer a 15 day grace period before a late fee of $15.00 is charged. Students will not be able to participate in class if the fees remain unpaid after the 15th. If the fee is unpaid by the 30th of the month past due, the unpaid student's class slot will be forfeited and made available for a student on the waitlist. Should the student wish to continue dance, they must be re enrolled in a class with availability and a registration fee will be due.
Prorating: Class fees will not be prorated due to absences, Holidays, or weather closures. Our tuition fees are determined by adding the sum total of classes for the full class session (August-May) and dividing that amount into even monthly installments.
Class Withdraw: If you would like to withdraw from a class, you must fill out a formal withdraw form. This form must be completed and submitted in person at our office during business hours before the 1st of the month, to avoid being required to pay further tuition payments. If the form is not received before the 1st of the month, you will be responsible for tuition of the dropped classes, regardless of attendance for the coming months until the form is submitted. Only at this time will automatic payments be terminated. If a student chooses to withdraw during a month, the fee for the entire month will still be owed. All dancers will be automatically withdrawn from their class at the conclusion of a class session.
Recital Fees: All recital fees (Costume fees and Show fees) are non refundable. If a dancer will not be participating in a recital/showcase, notification must be given before the fees are due. An opt out form must be completed and submitted no more than one day before any fees are due.
*Stage moms are required for each class. They are volunteers from each class who will sit in the audience with the dancers. If a class does not have stage moms or the number or required stage moms, a $15.00 fee will be charged (per student) to cover the cost of a sitter.
Attendance:
If a student misses class, it affects them and their fellow classmates. That is why it is expected for them to be in class every week. If a student is unable to attend class, they must text the studio number to notify the instructor. There will be no refunds for missed classes. After their absence, a student may talk with their instructor about a make-up class, to see if there is a class they may be able to attend.
Behavior:
Our students are expected and encouraged to treat their instructor(s) and classmates with grace and respect. If a student's behavior has gotten out of hand and/or is hindering their classmates from learning, our instructors hold the right to excuse the student from the class for a period of time, that day, or to send them home. There will be no refund given for the class from which the student was excused.
Coming and Going:
Students should arrive at the studio a few minutes early so that they are dressed, with shoes on, when class starts. Children should not be left unattended in the lobby. For the safety of our students, guardians must come inside to pick their child at the end of class. If students, who drive, have classes that end after dark, they must walk out with a member of our staff.
Cell phones:
During class, cell phones must be on silent mode and tucked away in the student's dance bag. If there is an emergency, you may call the studio.
Lobby:
Our lobby is a place where families are able and encouraged to come watch their dancers and should be free of things that may distract our students. Siblings are welcome and must be accompanied by a guardian at all times.
