No. We are able to offer a total of 2 complimentary tickets per family for one performance of your choice. The number of comp tickets do not increase based on the number of classes taken or the number of students in a family.
Your tuition is the same regardless of classes missed or the number of classes in a month. There is no reduction for missed classes.
If we have to cancel classes due to inclement weather, a make-up class will be scheduled. Therefore, there are no refunds for canceled classes.
Should withdrawal become necessary, a two-week written notice is required from the child’s parent or guardian. If we do not receive notice from you that your child is dropping his or her class, your tuition will continue to accrue. Once you notify us of your withdrawal, payment of any outstanding balances must be made. If your child drops a class after January 1st, you must also pay a $45.00 cancellation fee.
