I have read and understand the Financial Policies and Procedures. I understand that it is my responsibility as a parent to follow through with my child’s financial obligations associated with tuition and other fees during the season. Should I fall behind or fail to make payments I recognize that my child’s involvement will be jeopardized. I acknowledge that all of the specific policies have been outlined for me and that I am aware of my obligations.

A copy of the studio handbook is in the parent portal and online at www.centerstagedanceal.com

I have declared on this form any physical/mental disabilities, limitations, restrictions, or condition and/or declare the participant to be in good physical and mental health.

All payments received are applied to outstanding charges in the order in which they were billed. No exceptions. If the card on file is declined, parents have 5 days to update this card, or a $15 late fee will be posted to the account.
