CSDA September 2024 Newsletter

Classes begin Monday, September 9th. We are so excited to see our former dancers and meet our new dancers.

New dance families, if you have not received your Welcome email with information and attached Welcome Booklet it will be coming this week.

Our monthly newsletters are emailed out the beginning of the month every month. They are also posted in your portal under files, on our website and posted on the members only Facebook page. Please join our private members page if you haven't already!

https://www.facebook.com/groups/CSDAStudioMembers

Please take a few minutes to read through the newsletter when you receive it. This is to ensure you know what is going on in the studio. Plus! We like to throw in photos of our dancers and achievements (dance and non-dance related), maybe your dancer made it in the newsletter!

If you have moved, changed your phone number or email we need to know. Please make sure your information is up to date in your portals throughout the season. We don't want you to miss any important information.

You will be able to watch your dancers during class. This is a secured zoom link through your parent portal. There will be video, no audio, like a closed circuit tv. To access the zoom, click the camera icon under today's schedule in your parent portal. You will need to log into your zoom account before it directs you into the zoom meeting to watch your dancer. Please remember to mute your mics and turn off your camera while watching.

For illnesses please follow the same policy as schools. If your child is under the weather please keep your dancer home. You are able to take a make-up class for missed classes. Make-up classes can be taken at either studio and must be a comparable or lower level class. Email the studio for availability.

To report your dancers absences, please log into your parent portal and click attendance, then report absence.

Reminder, dancers need to address teachers with Mr & Miss, i.e., Miss Tiffany.

This link www.shopnimbly.com/CSDAmass will bring you directly to our nimbly site to order new dance shoes. Items bought on nimbly will be shipped directly to you. Please make sure you read the descriptions to size your dancers correctly. Studio swag can be ordered on the parent portals online store. The link for dance shoes is also on the online store under featured items.

We will have used shoes available to try on and purchase during the first week of classes. Please email asmith@centerstagestudios.net your child's street shoe size before coming to class. All used shoe sales (cash only) will be done as a 50/50 consignment with the Studio (50% to seller(credit on your portal) / 50% Center Stage) Only shoes in good condition will be sold.

Monthly Tuition (billed in 10 equal installments): Tuition fees are due for the upcoming month in advance. Payments are due the 1st of the month prior and should be submitted no later than the 15th of the month prior to ensure enrollment for the following month's classes.

Example: September Tuition will be due August 1st. October's Tuition will be due September 1st and so on.

Tuition is due the first week of each month. Tuition can be paid by autopay (sign up in your parent portal), credit card on your parent portal, check or cash in studio, or by mail. There is a slot in the locked desk at both studios for cash/check payments. This will be checked daily. All mailed payments can be mailed to 116 Long Pond Rd., Box 16, Plymouth, MA 02360. We do not send out monthly statements (you will only receive a reminder notice on the 14th of the month if your tuition has not been paid). A $15.00 late fee will be assessed to any tuition payments received after the 15th of the month. Please review our tuition policy, late fees and returned check service charges in our studio handbook. If we receive more than one returned check, the remainder of the year’s monthly payments must be paid by cash or money order.
