JDA January News - #3

Hello JDA,
February tuition has been posted. Account statements have been emailed. Please let the front desk know if you do not receive a statement. There was a technical glitch half-way through the global report email attempt; I am unsure how many statements were sent. CC holders will be charged on February 1st.

Production Pictures: Saturday, April 24th, 9:00am-3:00pm. We are working on the schedule. It will be made public soon.

Dress rehearsal: Friday, May 21st, 4:00-9:00pm and Saturday, May 22nd, 9:00am-2:00pm. Most younger dancers will have only one rehearsal day/time. If a dancer is in multiple classes, we cannot promise their rehearsal times will be on the same day and/or close together in time. Also please note, dress rehearsal is mandatory. If a dancer is not in dress rehearsal OR misses their rehearsal time, they will not be allowed to participate in Production. There are no exceptions and this is non-negotiable.

Spring Production: Sunday, May 23rd. Like last year, we will again have 3 show times, yet to be announced. Just like dress rehearsal, there are no guarantees that multiple classes or siblings will be in the same show. With 50% of our dancers having siblings, it just isn't possible to accommodate any requests. We please ask for your understanding in this matter.

Costumes are arriving. Please be sure to check fit with your dancer's instructor. Any situations, we need to know immediately. Although exchanging a costume is not an option due to ship dates, there are options if it doesn't fit properly. We want everyone, dancer and parent, to be comfortable with how the costume feels and looks.

Class cancellation policy: Man! We just cannot catch a break with this weather. We do not offer tuition adjustments for classes being canceled due to weather. This is something beyond our control. We do have a flexible class make-up policy though. A dancer may take any class, any time, to make a full month of dance. This is a great opportunity to try a different class as for many of our classes, there is only day/time. With Production choreography in full swing, instructors are full-steam ahead making sure dancers will be ready. There may not be alot of time spent on basics but it will still be a nice chance to try something new.

Lastly, we are looking for an additional cleaning person so we need two people. There has been some interest to our first email but we now have two positions to fill. So, if you might be interested, please reply back. We'd be thrilled to speak with you.

As always, thank you for taking the time to read my numerous, lengthy emails. Have a great week everyone; enjoy the sunshine. Yea!
Best regards,
Tami
