ATTENTION JUNIOR AND TEEN COMPANY

Optional Group Routine


The Teen and Junior Company have the opportunity to audition for a routine to be competed with the Senior and Elite Companies. This is optional to those who want to put in extra time and money. We will hold auditions at the end of their class next Thursday November 1st . They already know the choreography so it will only take a few minutes. You will get a sneak peak of the routine if we perform at the football game. This is a very quick version of the routine and will change quite a bit after the performance! Please let your daughter know whether or not she will be participating before auditions next week!

ISSUING OF COMPLAINTS

Dear Parents, We are asking you at this time to please come to us when you have a concern.  We would much rather talk with you and try to resolve the situation rather than you talking with each other and escalading the problem to the point that it seems like a much bigger problem than what it really is. We do our best to provide you with what you need.  If your daughter is happy please try to remember this reflects that we as teachers must be doing a great job. If you yourself are unhappy please come to us personally or give us a call. We will be able to form a solution together.  I think it would be best for all of us to focus on all the good that is going on. This will result in a successful year! I do want to thank the few moms that I get regular phone calls of Thank you's. It means more than you know.

NEW ATTENDANCE POLICY

We are having a major problem with girls missing dance this year. We will be implementing a new policy that goes in to effect this week. Please read closely so we are all on the same page.

The teachers will be taking role and if your child is gone, comes late, or leaves early (more than 10 minutes) it will count against them. They will be allowed 8 total (this is all of their classes combined including technique and ballet) marks against them. Once they have hit that they will have to sit out of a performance. We feel that this is the only way to keep it under control. This will help the girls to decide if they really need to miss for certain things and also if they are really truly sick. We have girls sitting out often because they are sick aka as lazy for the day! If they do choose to sit out and watch that will be a mark against them.

 We hope that this will help and everyone will abide by the rules.

EPIC INFORMATION

We will be meeting at the studio on Friday the 5th at 1:30 to carpool. The girls need to pack dance clothes and all dance shoes, snacks for energy and a swimming suit! I need the moms that are going to text me and let me know how many girls they can drive up asap. We might need more moms to help drive. On Saturday the girls will showcase all their routines at 3:00 and scholarships will be given out. All parents are welcome to come watch.
