Tuition and Registration 🤓
Tuition is due the first of every month. If you have not yet paid tuition, you can pay online, call the front office, or come in and pay in person. If you have already paid, thank you so much!
Additionally, if you have not yet registered your child/ren you can do that as well. Registration is $350. Your child will not be on the class roster until registration is paid.
If you refer anyone to our school, we accept them, and they register, you will receive one month free of tuition per child registered!
Summer office hours are Monday - Thursday 9 am - 1 pm.
School Supply List 📚
This year we are transitioning to new uniform colors. We will now be wearing purple. This is a way for us to more closely align with the high school.

Girls PreK-5: white peter pan blouse with the jumper. On Mass day, the purple cardigan is the only option if you want to wear something on top of the white blouse.
Girls 6-8: white button down shirt, plaid skirt, and either long sleeve or short sleeve purple vest.
Boys PreK -8: white shirt, either long sleeve or short sleeve purple vest, and black pants.

Dance & Song ✨
Meet Miss Brandy
Brandy Factory is a Dance Artist, Choreographer, and Teacher. She began her dance
training at Compton Dance Theatre Foundation focusing on ballet and the Horton technique.
Along with her pre-professional and professional endeavors she received her B.A. in Dance from
California State University, Fullerton after transferring from Long Beach City College.
At CSUF she trained in: Ballet, Graham, Limon, and Horton. Immediately after graduation she
earned her 200 hr certification in Hatha Yoga and joined the Nannette Brodie Dance Theatre where she was an apprentice. The Southern California born artist has performed at
various venues including the country’s oldest international festival, Jacob's Pillow, and has
worked with established artists such as Keith Johnson, Bernard Gaddis, Jessica Kondrath, and
Doug Varone. She was a part of the Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show in 2022. Brandy currently
teaches dance at St. Anthony High School as well as directs the Dance Team. She is also on
faculty at Center Stage Dance Academy in Long Beach.
We are still working on pricing. With a team of about 15, Dance Team would cost roughly $175 for the entire year. This does not include uniform and shoes. However, we would work together to fundraise to lower the cost of uniforms. It would be a $50 deposit to secure your spot on the team. After that, you can pay in full or separate into three payments throughout the year.
Dance Team will be open for boys and girls from Kinder through 8th Grade!
This $175 includes the cost of choreography by Miss Brandy, preparation, entrance, pictures and insurance for the 3 day competition in March, a recital in May, performances at St. Anthony High School games, and practice at the gym twice a week after school.
More details to come, but I am excited about this new opportunity!
Would your child join the Dance Team?
