2007-2008 SEASON SCHEDULE
"Celebrating 25 Successful Years!"
Since 1983
FALL REGISTRATION
Fall registrations will be taken the week
of Monday, July 30 - Saturday, August 4, for dancers in
the Summer DANCEcamp. Open registration will be held
starting the week of Monday, August 6. Only registration
and payment in advance of classes will guarantee
placement. A REGISTRATION FEE is due with payment for
Session I. It is due at the time of registration for
others joining later in the year. The fee is $20.00 per
year per student or $50.00 for a family with 3 or more
students. This fee is nonrefundable. SCHOOL SCHEDULE - Our season runs like the school
year, September - June (with a Summer DANCEcamp). If a
dancer wishes to take off a session, then re-register,
it causes great office complications, especially in
full classes. A dancer who misses a session is at a
disadvantage as each session is a progression. Another
registration fee will be charged if this occurs. Please
notify the office (not just the teacher) if your dancer
wishes to discontinue, add a class, or drop a class.
Thank you. TWO PAYMENT OPTIONS - For your convenience we
offer two payment options. OPTION 1 Monthly payments due on the 15th of
every month. Aug. 15th thru May 15th for Sessions I thru
V, and June 15th & July 15th for summer DANCEcamp. OPTION 2 Payments made in full for 8 week
sessions qualify for a discount. Payment is due on the
15th of every other month. Aug. 15th, Oct. 15th, Dec.
15th, Feb. 15th, April 15th for Sessions I thru V, and
June 15th for Summer DANCEcamp. We accept VISA, MasterCard, and debit cards. LATE PAYMENTS All payments are due by the 15th of
every month or every other month. If a payment is not
paid by the 25th of the month, the computer
automatically places an $8.00 late fee on the account.
After the 25th a payment no longer qualifies for the
discounted 8-week rate. No late fees will be applied to
new students starting after the 25th, nor will they be
applied when returning students register for Session I
in the Fall.

Our School Structure
Below is the structure of the school. This should help
explain where the dancers start, what they work towards,
and how several dancers advanced many years or dance
levels, after a single Summer Workshop Program. All of
the dance programs work together to provide the dancers
with excellent training so each individual can reach the
highest of his/her ability.
