Notes from the Office

Office hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday Noon-3pm and Wednesday 5:30-9:00pm.  If you are unable to call the office during these hours, please leave a message and your call will be returned as soon as possible.

Tuition is due on the first of each month.  A $15 late fee will automatically be charged to any account not paid in full by the 10th of the month.  A statement will only be sent to delinquent accounts.
 
Dancewear: Studio policy REQUIRES that all dancers wear black leotards, jazz pants, booty shorts, camisoles.  PLEASE send your dancer to class with the proper dancewear every week.  (even hard to convince teens!) As of Nov 1, dancers will be asked to sit out, if not in the required dancewear.

 

Used Dancewear: Encore Dance Company collects gently used dancewear & dance shoes to use as their annual resale fundraiser.  A donation bin is available, in the waiting room, for your donations.
 
Illness:  Parents, if your student is not feeling well and is running a temperature, PLEASE keep them home.  Students who are recovering and no longer contagious are welcome to observe class, if don't feel well enough to participate.
 
Recycle:
recycle symbol
Our Lake Travis High School senior, Christine Taylor, is implementing a new recycling program, in the studio, as part of her LTHS Enviromental Science class project.  There will be new recycling receptacles for plastic, aluminum and paper, in the studio.  She is also opening a TerraCycle branch.  This means that dancers can put all of their snack trash (granola/energy bar wrappers, fruit snack wrappers, etc.) in the TerraCycle bins; Christine will collect all of these wrappers and send them back to the TerraCycle company to earn funds for the studio!  So, next time you're in the studio, make sure to help out your environment and recycle any and all waste that you have!
