The week of December 13-19, all PreDance A, B, C, Ballet/Tap Combo D and P1 classes will provide a chance for the parents to come in and participate with their child.  It's great fun for the kids as well as the adults.  This is NOT an observation week.  You will be actively taking part in class!  So leave your cameras at home and dress comfortably.  We won't hold parents to the leotard and tights dress code but be sure to wear something that allows freedom of movement.
  If for some reason you will not be able to join in the fun, please let your teacher know.  We try to have an adult on hand for every child if we can.

Recital costume orders will go in by mid-December.  We'll have the costume previews on our website soon.  Go to the Recital page and you will be able to look up which classes will be in which show.
If you are contemplating any schedule changes this week is a good time to take care of that before the costume orders go in. Once ordered costumes are non-refundable.  Any costumes ordered after the initial order has been placed this month will have a $10 late fee added to the total.  Costumes ordered later or that have to be exchanged for a different size take can at least 12-14 weeks to come in.
If your child won't be able to participate in the recital please let us know that prior to Dec 15th.

Let us know if you have any questions.  Have a great week!
