DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP
Parents should bring their child into the Project Ballet lobby and wait for class to begin. Please plan to arrive about five minutes early to change into ballet shoes and take off your coat, etc. A minute or two before class is scheduled to start, our staff will gather up the students in class and head with them into the classroom. Once the students have left with their teacher to begin class, parents are free to leave or you may wait in our lobby for the duration of the class. Please make sure to return promptly at the end of class.
PARENT OBSERVATION
The last class of the session (April 29) will be open for observation by family and friends. Observation attendees will be able to video record and take photographs during class.
DRESS CODE
Students are required to wear a plain white undershirt style short-sleeve or long-sleeve t-shirt, black basketball shorts, white socks, and black or white ballet slippers. Please select a t-shirt size that is not too baggy or oversized, so that the teacher can easily see your child's movements. Long hair should be pulled back off the face in a bun, pony tail, or similar style. Ballet slippers can be purchased at Standing Ovation Performance Apparel, at stores such as WalMart or Target, or online.
TUITION
Boys class is tuition free, however there is a $20 non-refundable enrollment fee per session.
