Policies
Weather & Holidays
If O’Fallon School District 90 closes for weather reasons, there will be no classes at DanceStation. We are NOT closed for most Monday holidays or teacher conference days. A studio calendar is sent home at the beginning of the first semester.
Attendance
Increasingly, our young people are overbooked and overscheduled. Regular attendance is key to the student’s progression in each class. If you miss a class, there is no refund, but make-up classes are offered at no additional cost. Our instructors will pick the suitable time and class for your child. Please make an effort to be on time to all classes; otherwise your child may miss critical warm up time and be more susceptible to injury.
Dress Code
No gum or jewelry please.
Hair
Hair should be in a bun or neatly secured off the face and neck for ALL ballet and pointe classes.
