General Information
Tuition: Tuition for each student is due at the beginning of the summer session. Payments must be received in the studio by the second class day. Payments not received by the second class day will be assessed a $5.00 late fee. Payments can be dropped off at the studio or mailed to the studio at Morristown School of Dance, PO Box 514, Morristown, MN 55052. Payments can be in the form of cash or check. Debit/credit cards are not currently accepted. Account statements are not mailed out. If you need an account statement, please call the studio and we will prepare one for you and place it in your student’s mail file. Please do not inquire about billing issues to the instructor during or in between dance classes. It is disruptive to the students. Please call the studio during non-class time. Please also note that any returned check will be assessed a $30.00 returned check fee.
Attendance: Please make every effort to attend all classes. Technique and choreography are taught during each class period. These are not things students will want to miss. Please note that in the event of any absences, the full amount of tuition will still be due for that month.
Parent/Guest Observation: Parents and guests are welcome to observe classes from the seats located in the “office” side of the studio. Please try not to let observation lead to distraction. Students tend to learn better and work harder when parents and guests are not present. Please refrain from interacting with the students too often during their class when observing.
Dress Code: For safety reasons, please avoid wearing baggy t-shirts, sweatshirts or pants. Please also NO JEANS or STREET CLOTHES! Please also refrain from wearing any bulky jewelry or accessories. Our suggestions for appropriate clothing are:
