TUITION
Monthly tuition rates are based on the specific class in which each student is registered. Tuition is due on the 1st of the month with a grace period until the 3rd. If tuition has not been paid by the 3rd of the month, a $20.00 late fee will be added to your account. At this time, our front office staff will make three attempts to collect your tuition payment. If after these attempts your tuition is still not paid, your student will not be able to return to class until your account is current. There will be no discounts for studio closures for school holidays.

Tuition is paid each month unless a drop request is received by the front desk before the 1st of the month. Tuition nonrefundable.

PAYMENT
For your convenience, and to ensure timely payments, SAJDP has an auto-payment system. All families are required to sign-up for automatic payment. SAJDP is not responsible for any lost or damaged payments. Returned or declined payments will be charged a $25.00 fee. After two returned or declined payments, all future payments must be made in cash one month in advance. IF you prefer to pay in cash, you must still be signed up for autopay and pay your tuition before the 1st of the month they are due.

REHEARSAL FEES
As our studio grows and shows become bigger and more detailed, we’ve found it necessary to hold special rehearsals so multiple classes can rehearse together with the props. Students will be required to attend Saturday rehearsals as deemed necessary by the Creative Director. Students will be charged a $10 rehearsal fee for each rehearsal scheduled. This fee begins March 1st and runs until June. Rehearsals are on the last Saturday of every month unless determined otherwise.
We understand that circumstances arise, and we certainly don't want to see any student miss their class, so please contact the front office with any questions or concerns.

I have carefully reviewed this Waiver, Release, And Hold Harmless Agreement. I understand it fully and I execute it voluntarily

CONDUCT
At SAJDP we have specific standards for our parents as well as our students. SAJDP dancer’s families are part of the studio
experience.
Some of the things to remember when at the studio are:
1. Parents will encourage all students in their efforts.
2. Classes start on time. The class door will be locked 10 minutes after the start of class.
3. If a piece of choreography is taught when a student is absent it is the student’s responsibility to find another student to help them learn the choreography that was missed.
4. Parents are not to come into the classroom unless participating in a class, during watch week, or when asked to enter by staff.
5. Dancers must always adhere to the dress code.
6. All communications shall be done via the studio phone, studio email, or in person. Do not send text messages to staff, unless directed to do so. SAJDP’s staff cell phones, when provided, are for emergencies, dance team,s or as requested by staff only.

10 CORE VALUES

ALWAYS GIVE 100 %
ALWAYS GIVE A HELPING HAND
ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER
RESPECT ONE ANOTHER
DANCE WITH PASSION
SET THE EXAMPLE
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
NEVER SAY, "I CAN’T"

REHEARSAL FEES
We've found it necessary to hold special rehearsals so multiple classes can rehearse together with the props. Students must attend Saturday rehearsals as deemed necessary by the Creative Director. Students may be charged a $15 rehearsal fee for each rehearsal scheduled. This fee begins March 1st and runs until June.

We understand that circumstances arise, and we certainly don't want to see any student miss their class, so don't hesitate to contact the front office with any questions or concerns.

FEES AND BILLING
Each student is required to pay a registration fee in addition to tuition upon registration for classes.
Students who drop courses for a session are subject to a new registration fee. Class fees are posted to your account on the 20th of each month and are due IN FULL on the 1st of the following month. Winter and Spring seasons will have a $10 rehearsal fee for rehearsals scheduled for your dancer's age group. These fees will be assessed regardless if your student attends or not.

Tuition is an annual fee based on the number of hours your student plans on studying. The annual fee is divided by 10 payment starting in August and ending in June

We prefer payments to be made via autopay. We also accept online payments, cash, checks, and credit and debit cards in the studio or dropped in our mailbox. There is a charge of $15.00 for fees not paid in full five days after the due date. If left unpaid, another fee of $15.00 will be charged every 14 days. Students are subject to drop if prices are late ten days or more. If you have a payment issue, please talk with the office before the 1st of the month. THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS TO OUR LATE FEE POLICY. Dropping classes after fees are due will NOT relieve the debt.

Drop-in fees are available for unregistered students only. Current students must either pay their monthly tuition or risk losing their spot on the class roster. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR FEES PAID

CLASS SCHEDULES
The dance year is divided into three sections: fall, spring, and summer. The fall and Spring seasons are divided by semester using similar dates to school. The summer season is a six-week program that focuses on a variety of skills and techniques. Classes canceled due to teacher absence will be rescheduled at the teacher’s earliest opportunity. Classes not held due to holidays will not be rescheduled. SAJ generally observes all federal, state, and local holidays. We also celebrate most school holidays to accommodate family vacations.
