ENROLLMENT AND TUITION

Tuition is paid every four weeks and an invoice will be emailed on the first date of each tuition period.   From the date of invoice, you have 10 days to pay before a late fee of $10 will be incurred.  Preferred payment methods are via a credit card on file, credit card over the phone or by PayPal online.   Any payments submitted by check or cash will be credited the day it is received and must be submitted in an envelope by the student at the front desk drop box.   Any returned checks must be paid within 7 days via cash or by calling in a credit card; a $25 returned check fee will be added.     I also agree to assume all responsibility for all legal and collection fees incurred for delinquent accounts.

Registration enrolls your student through the May Recital and the four week period following the recital.   Charges will continue to accrue until ACTUAL notice of dis-enrollment is given to Michele’s Dance Academy.   Students wishing to withdraw from a class or from the Academy must do so in writing via email to michelesdanceacademy@gmail.com   

Student may be refused admittance to a class if tuition payment is more than one month overdue.   Recital Fees must be paid and tuition must be current in order to participate in performances (Holiday Spectacular in December and Extravaganza in May). Please note that all prepaid tuition and recital fees are non-refundable.    I also acknowledge that participation in performances is NOT mandatory, but that if I do participate, there may be rehearsals outside of class time or at a performance theatre at no additional cost.

ABSENCE POLICY

Students should not attend class if they have a fever, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, difficulty breathing, infected skin or eyes or suspected communicable disease or lice . Please notify the studio if your child will not be attending class; call (575) 527-1893 or email michelesdanceacademy@gmail.com  Please note - missed classes (i.e. illness, vacation or other) for the dance season, camps or workshops are non-refundable. If the studio cancels class due to instructor illness (when a replacement cannot be found) classes will be re-scheduled. If the studio cancels class due to an emergency i.e. inclement weather, power outage etc. classes will not be re-scheduled and are non-refundable.   The school does reserve the right to alter class schedules, for any reason either temporarily or permanent without fault.

Students / Parents are responsible for make-up classes that should be attended for classes missed.   I understand that my child can make-up classes with any class of any type at their level within the same semester as the missed classes.    Make-up classes must be scheduled in advance to allow for social distancing guidelines that may be in effect; you can call or email.

EXCESSIVE ABSENCES: Students with excessive class absences may be dropped from a class and/or pulled from the recital dance with no refund. This is at the teacher's discretion. Dancers with excessive absences will receive a warning via email.
