CARE OF STUDENTS: MSA operates as a “Come and Go” facility. MSA is not responsible for providing before or after care for students unless the parent has registered them for the appropriate Extended Care Program.
Students are not to be left at the school for excessive periods before or after their programs. Students under age 12 requiring early drop off (before 8:15am) or late pick up (after 4:15pm) must register for the extended care program.
Please label all clothes, shoes, bags and other personal belongings with your student’s name and leave expensive electronics, jewelry and other valuables at home. MSA is not responsible for lost or misplaced/missing property.
ATTENDANCE & TARDINESS:
MSA reserves the right to ask students to observe class when arriving more than 10 minutes late.
STUDIO DRESS CODE:
To provide the most professional experience for your children we ask that students adhere to dress code. Hair must be worn off the neck and out of the face for classes other than ballet. A $5 bun kit will be provided and charged to the account on file if a student attends ballet class without a proper bun.
Program-specific dress code information is available online or by request at the front desk.
PHYSICAL CORRECTION POLICY:Dancing is physical skill and in order to help and facilitate the student's learning the teacher may need to physically guide a movement by touch. Touch promotes kinesthetic learning and can be produce a quicker response to correction than other teaching tools.
PHOTO RELEASE: The MSA staff may take photographs or videos of students, individually or in groups, attending or taking part in classes, programs and events. These photographs or videos may appear in publications, on our website, on social media or in other publicity. Students and/or participants consent to having their photographs and/or videos taken and used for such purposes.
MUSIC LESSON TERMS & CONDITIONS: Students are expected to provide their own instruments, supplies (i.e. picks, strings, etc.), with the exception of piano. In these instances it is recommended that a piano is available at home so the student is able to practice. All students are required to provide their own music. Teachers will make recommendations for music purchases.
MSA does not offer refunds. No credits or make-up lessons are offered for missed or cancelled private lessons, unless the cancellation is due to a weather closing or teacher absence. Students are entitled to 1 make-up lesson during the summer session, provided that the school is notified before 12:00 p.m. on the day of the lesson they must miss. Make-up lessons will be scheduled at the discretion of the instructor. In the case of a teacher’s absence, a substitute teacher may be arranged for the lesson(s). All private lessons missed due to MSA closing for a weather related emergency will be either made up or reimbursed in the form of a credit towards the following month’s tuition.
ACCEPTANCE: I have read and understand all the above material and agree to comply with MSA’s policies and procedures. I also understand that MSA reserves the right to terminate lessons or classes due to any individual or extenuating circumstances.
