RECITAL COSTUMES . . . The costume company has been sent our final order as of Feb. 1 at noon. Competition teams will be receiving their orders in approximately 3 weeks and all other classes will receive theirs in 8 to 10 weeks. Only costumes that were paid in full were included. If you have not paid and still plan to do so, your costume order will go out once the balance has been paid in full. If you plan to pay your balance, please read through the recital costume section of your September Newsletter for specific guidelines to determine the late fees & shipping fees that will need to be paid in order for the costume company to ship your order.

Competitive Teams

Our first competition for all groups will be held on Saturday, March 1. Registration fees will be due on Feb 18 at 9 pm. You will receive a statement next week. Please be aware that if you do not pay on time, your child will not be able to attend the competition. Our next competition will be held March 15 with the registration fees due on March 4 at 9 pm. The teams will be wearing the yellow 2013 National t-shirts to competitions during March-May as well as the team jacket. These are available at the studio if you do not have one. Last day to order will be February 13. All team members need both the shirt and jacket worn to each & everyone of the competitions.


Thoughts for Winter

As the hum-drum winter days keep on coming . . . I, again, will be  giving away two scholarships for the 2014-2015 season. One will go out to a recreational student and their parent and the other to a competitive student and their parent. Next week, when you visit our website, you will notice a new page dedicated to the requirements for each scholarship. Both of these scholarships will be awarded during our End-of-the-Year Recital. 


Fundraisers

All fundraisers from January on will be placed into your individual account to be used for registration fees for competition teams and/or

class fees. So, keep on fundraising!!!

Note to Parents

It is the responsibility for parents to check with children or look in their bags for handouts, etc… Papers are not handed out every week, however, there are times when I give your child a paper that needs to go to you. The academy posts notes to parents if something has been sent home with the children, but it’s best if you can check their bags every week. Thank you!

Class Cancellations

Any cancellations due to weather will be made by 2 pm Monday-Thursday. You can watch my Facebook, or the 94.7 WKKI. Remember, just because school is cancelled, DOES NOT mean that the studio will be closed.
