Class Placement |
---|
Zermeño Dance Academy instructors reserve the right to place students in the appropriate class based on their age and skill level. We will do our best to work with each dancer/parent to choose the most appropriate class for their level. Dancers must have 3-4 years experience to be considered “Intermediate/Advanced”. Years of dance experience does not always determine a dancers level. Age levels on the Class Schedules are a rough guide to help with class placements. Students are not required to fit in the age guide for any class. Classes must have a minimum of five (5) students in order to remain an “active” class. In the case of a class going “in-active”, students can be moved into a similar class/level. |
Attendance |

Missed classes will not result in pro-rated tuition and cannot be credited towards the following months tuition. There will be no class on National Holidays or during public schools Thanksgiving, Winter and Spring Breaks! We typically follow the Santa Barbara School District’s school schedule. Email reminders will sent throughout the year.
-Labor Day -Veterans Day -Thanksgiving Break -Winter Break -Martin Luther King Day -Presidents Day -Memorial Day -4th of July Students can make up a class by attending any class of a similar age and level. Make up classes must be attended within a month of the missed class. If a classed is missed, tuition is still expected by 8pm on the 1st of each month to hold your dancers spot in the class. NO EXCEPTIONS. Please contact Danny@zermenodance.com for questions regarding make up class placements. There will be no refunds if a dancer drops classes in the middle of the month, have other commitments, or leave for vacation. Students who register in the middle of a month can receive pro-rated tuition prices, only for the month of registration. Does not apply when missing 2 or more classes in a month. |
