Studio Policies:
Payment Policies: A yearly registration fee of $25.00 is due each September. Each new student enrolled from then on, September through August 31st, is required to pay this registration fee. Summer Session is considered a separate session; however if you are continuing from the Fall-Spring Sessions you do not owe a separate registration fee for the Summer Session. Renewal Registration fees, begin again the following September 1st (with Fall Session).
Our Tuition is based on a 9 week session. The September – June school year is divided into 4 Tuition Sessions, and Summer Session is in late June- late August. Tuition for each 9 week session is due one week prior to the Session beginning, or at the time of registration. Registration is not final, and your class spot reserved until tuition has been paid. If not paid by the first date of the session, a late fee of $15.00 will be applied. We do offer a monthly payment plan option. If this option is requested, you will be asked to read and sign our Monthly Payment Plan Agreement. Any late payments will void the contract, and the balance will be due in full. Method of payments include Cash, Check (payable to Legacy Ballet), and Visa, Mastercard, Discover or Amex. No Refunds, missed classes can be made up.
Once a dancer is registered for the school year, we consider them enrolled through the end of Session IV in June unless we are notified otherwise. To drop a class, we ask that you do please notify us in writing or by email as soon as possible so that we may update our records and allow another student to enroll in the class. If you decide to drop a class, and are still in the process of your monthly payment plan, or for some reason have a balance due, you are still responsible for the balance due for the remainder of the current session and any past balance not yet paid. You will be billed for the balance due, with any late fees and/or interest until your account is paid in full.
If payment becomes an issue, we reserve the right to ask your dancer to not participate in class until payment is received.
Observing Classes: Students will learn more when there are less distractions, therefore while we do allow classes to be observed through observation windows in the lobby. We ask that you please do your best to keep distractions and noise level to a minimum. Only class participants and instructors are allowed in the classrooms. If there is an issue, too many distractions, or high noise level, we do reserve the right to ask you to please not stay to observe class.
Class Attendance: Each student is required to maintain regular attendance, as each student is important to the entire class. Please notify the studio if your child will be absent. There are no refunds for missed classes; however, missed classes can be made up. Please arrive on time or a few minutes early! Dancers must be warmed up properly to dance safely. Any dancer arriving more than 15 minutes late may have to sit and watch rather than take class. This is not a punishment, but a safety issue as dancers may be injured if they take class without being warmed up. In addition, dancers without proper dance attire or appropriate hair may have to sit and watch. Again, not as a punishment, but a safety issue. Please see our “Studio Dress Code” for information on proper attire for your dancer’s class.
