ANNUAL REGISTRATION/INSURANCE FEE
All Students will be charged a registration/insurance fee. This fee is good for one year or until you drop out of a program.

MAKEUP POLICY
Because of our strict student to teacher ratio, missed classes will not result in make-up classes, prorated tuition or refunds. No refunds for classes missed including scheduled holidays.

You are responsible for payment for your student's classes whether or not your child attends class.

WHAT TO WEAR
Children may wear tucked in T-shirts and shorts OR Tights. NO chewing gum or jewelry. Hair should be pulled neatly and securely away from the face so that is stays up for the entire class. All students should have activity-appropriate footwear during class, and MUST be a separate clean indoor only pair of runners. Personal items should be left in outside of equipment areas. Jewelry should not be worn during classes. This facility's staff will not be responsible for ANY items that may be lost or stolen. Be sure your child's belongings are taken home at the end of each class.

ARRIVAL AND PICKUP
Be sure your student arrives 5 minutes before his/her scheduled class time. Please pick up your child on time. Please inform us if an emergency arises and if you know you will be late picking up your child.

We understand that life happens. One late pick up is understandable with extenuating circumstances. Please respect that staff are unable to stay late to watch children, either at closing time or during other practices. Repeat late pickups will be subject to a charge of $1 per minute or more.

Please instruct your child to always wait inside the building and you should escort them from the building to your car. During peak times the parking lot can become crowded. Please take into consideration that our athletes may include young children. Please drive slowly and carefully. Do not take a chance on your child running to and from your car.

Early pickup is a disruption of practices, please avoid it.
