Policies

POLICIES:
Please try to be on time. 

Dress for “moving and dancing!”

Food, toys or other "distractions" often cause problems rather than provide comfort when brought into music class. Since another child might want your child’s drink or stuffed animal, it is often easier to leave those things at home or in the car.

SHOES:
Outdoor shoes are not permitted in the studio, please place them on the racks outside the door as you enter. Socks or indoor shoes/slippers are fine. Please help us keep our studio clean.

ABSENCES:
If you need to be absent from class, please let me know as soon as possible. Because classes are small, I may choose to reschedule if there are many absences on the same day. 

CLASS CANCELLATIONS:
Class will only be canceled in the case of teacher illness or inclement weather (we follow the Hanover School Division policy for closures). In these circumstances, you will receive email communication as early as possible. Every attempt will be made to make up for missed classes. 

OBSERVATIONS:
Remember that all children learn at different rates and in different ways. Some children will be quiet in class, others will be active. Some children will do everything perfectly at home, but not in class. Children who are not actively participating are still observing and absorbing everything! As a parent, you know that every child is unique, so just have fun and let the music work it's magic!
