Calendar
JSPA runs three consecutive terms:
Term 1: September – December
Term 2: January – March
Term 3: April – June
See the Term Dates document for details
Students enrolled in Term 1 will automatically be enrolled in their same classes for Term 2 and 3 unless changes are communicated in writing.
Students enrolled in Term 2 will automatically be registered and charged for Term 3 as we cannot fill that dancer's spot after Term 2.

Schedule
Please see the Class Schedule document for a detailed list of classes offered at JSPA.
JSPA reserves the right to consolidate or cancel classes at any time and for any reason. Students enrolled in cancelled classes can choose to change classes or be refunded any paid fees.
If a single class must be cancelled due to teacher absence, JSPA will provide a makeup class during the first week of each term holiday.
On rare occasions, an island-wide event may cause major disruption to the JSPA schedule. In these cases, JSPA reserves the right to reschedule classes.
JSPA is not responsible for making up classes due to National Holidays or Natural Disasters.

All students must be punctual to class. If a student arrives after a class warm-up has begun, he/she may be asked to observe class for safety reasons.
Only students whose names are on the registers will be allowed to participate in the class. Parents/guardians/visitors are not allowed to sit in the class while the class is being conducted.
A parent/guardian should report all absences prior to class by phone or email. JSPA cannot accommodate students who miss class.
Students who miss a class will not be reimbursed for this class, nor is JSPA required to provide them with a makeup class.
Any student wishing to partake in the recital must attend all classes and scheduled rehearsals during Rehearsal Week at City Hall.
Students are responsible for learning choreography for any classes missed. If a student misses more than two classes and is unable to learn missed choreography, the teacher reserves the right to decide whether or not the student will participate in the recital.

Conduct
Food, drinks (other than water), chewing gum and smoking are not permitted inside the school.
JSPA is a child-centered business which provides a safe, nurturing and positive dance environment. Students are expected to be respectful of themselves, their peers and the facility, and must behave appropriately in order to maintain this environment. Parents are requested to ensure that their children are well behaved. General misbehavior will not be tolerated, and parents/guardians will be contacted if their child is causing any concerns. If negative behaviour continues, the student will be asked to leave and fees will be forfeited.
Students causing damages to premises will be held liable.


Personal Belongings, Injury & Safety
Please label all personal belongings. There is a lost and found box in the building which is emptied periodically. Any sentimental or expensive items will be kept in the office. JSPA and its teachers are not responsible for any loss or damage of personal property of students. Personal property is brought to class at the student’s own risk.
Any injury/illness that may restrict or hinder a student must be reported to the teacher prior to class. It is recommended that injured students observe classes in which they cannot partake.
If a student arrives after a class warm-up has begun, he/she may be asked to observe class for safety reasons.
JSPA teachers are trained in injury prevention and accommodations. However, as with all physical activity, there is an element of risk. JSPA is not responsible for any injury that occurs at the dance school.

Recital
Term 3 concludes with a 4-night recital at the end of June.
It is assumed that all students will participate in the summer recital, unless written communication is sent to the school via email.
Costumes are required for the recital and the fees are divided amongst the first two terms (see next section).
All fees must be paid before the recital. Any outstanding balances will result in a dancer not being able to participate in the recital. Dancers will not receive costumes until all fees are current.
Any items purchased by JSPA and borrowed by students must be returned at the end of the show. Students will be billed for any items not returned.
Recital tickets will be sold online at www.bdatix.bm prior to our shows. Refunds/exchanges will not be made on any purchased tickets. If for any unforeseen circumstances the show must be postponed, such as weather, tickets will not be refunded but will be honored on a new date.

Costumes and Costume Fees
Students will be charged a non-refundable costume fee of $60 per class, for Terms 1 and 2. No costume fee will be charged during Term 3.
All dancers will be charged this fee unless written communication is given at time of registration. If a parent/guardian advises that their child will not be participating in the recital after Term 2 registration ends, costumes must be paid for in full.
During Term 3, an email will be sent out for costumes to be collected by a deadline. This deadline is to ensure all costumes and accessories are accounted for each child. If costumes are not collected by this deadline, JSPA cannot guarantee the resizing or reordering of costumes.
Costumes will not be handed out to students until all fees are up-to-date.
