SNOW/BAD WEATHER POLICY:
If it is necessary to cancel lessons due to severe bad weather, a recorded message will be placed on our answering machine to notify school closure. We may not have enough time to inform all students: it is your responsibility to contact the studio during times of severe weather. There will be NO reduction of tuition for school closure because cancelled classes will be rescheduled at a later date.

HEALTH:
Please inform the administration and instructors of all health issues such as allergies, injuries and/or conditions. We trust you to make the best judgement when it comes to bringing a sick child into class. Should your child appear to be too ill to participate, the studio reserves the right to refuse a child’s admission to class and require that you take the child home.

The studio reserves the right to cancel the enrolment of a child for any of the following reasons:
• Disregard for the studio rules.

Parents, legal guardians of minor students and adult students waive the right to legal action for any injury sustained on school property resulting from normal class activity and/or any other activity conducted by the students before, during or after class.

KEEP INFORMED:
The school provides 5 methods of communication: phone, email, website, student handouts and in-studio posters. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian or adult student to utilise these methods of communication and be aware of school activities such as photo week, dress rehearsals, performances, etc. and other important information such as closures, cancellations, due dates, etc.

Dance Kids Canada is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
