  • You may not leave a dancer under age 13 unattended outside because we are not responsible for your student before or after class. 

MAKEUP POLICY
Because of our strict student to teacher ratio, missed classes will not result in make-up classes, prorated tuition or refunds. No refunds for classes missed including scheduled holidays.

Also, we do not offer make up classes due to weather cancellations. 


Drop Procedure


PARENTS MUST NOTIFY THE STUDIO TO DROP A STUDENT FROM CLASS. Only a written notice via email will be acceptable.

Please note: You are responsible for payment for your student's classes WHETHER OR NOT YOUR STUDENT ATTENDS CLASS. If a student stops coming to class without notification then that student's account will be charged for the additional 30 days. This charge will be for holding the student's place in that class instead of offering that place to one of the many on a waiting list.

Students

Be respectful, kind, and supportive of yourself, students, and Thrive staff. Work hard with a positive attitude. Participate in class to the best of your ability. Bullying will not be tolerated.

Parents 

Be respectful, kind, and supportive of yourself, students, and Thrive staff. If you can encourage your dancer for their hard work, perseverance and good attitude, they will take these skills past the dance studio and into other areas of their lives!

Thrive Staff

Kindly teach new dancers the rules and expectations of class. Help students uphold the studio expectations by verbally reminding them of the rules. Demonstrate a positive attitude and a kind heart for students to model. Listen to student and parent concerns. Recognize each dancer as a person above all else.
