1-Welcome to our 9th dance season! We are so excited to have so many returning and new faces here at FSA.
2-Parents are allowed to watch children in class through our viewing windows or doors. Just please make sure to not distract our dancers.
3-Food is only allowed in our lobby in the main building. I want to remind everyone that we are a “Nut Free” studio. We have many students with nut allergies. So if your child brings a snack with them, please make sure there are no nuts. This also includes Chik-fil-a, Five Guys, and George’s pizza.
4-If you have signed up and need to drop a class, you must give 30-days notice by October 1st. October payment will still be due, but your child can still participate in the class. You are allowed to switch classes, but we will also need 30-days notice. No exceptions.
5-Please adhere to our Studio Dress Code. There was a dress code in your registration packet & it is on our website.
6- All students registered in Ballet Classes will be in the first act of our Christmas Recital, which is excerpts from “The Nutcracker.” A cast list will be up in a few weeks which will assign classes to parts. There is a $25 rental fee for each costume your child needs. Tap & Musical Theatre classes will be the only classes participating in Act II of the Christmas Recital. We are looking at doing the Spotsylvania Christmas Parade for other students, we will have more information about that parade in the near future.
7-Each month, there will be a newsletter in your family folder. There will also be additional information in your folder as well, so make sure you check it periodically. We will also have constant updates on our Facebook page and even more information on our website.
The FSA staff is incredibly excited for this upcoming year! Do not hesitate to ask us questions. We are here for you and your family!
