| ATTENDANCE |
1. The only way a child can benefit fully from the programs offered at LDE Inc., is through regular attendance.
Dance and tumbling demand mental and physical readiness and training, at all levels. Each student is individually evaluated on their personal abilities, attitude, attentiveness and performance in class.
2. Classes can be “made up” in a similar class. This is highly recommended for student progress.
Regardless of a student’s attendance - tuition remains the same.
3. Students will be restricted if their attendance does not meet the minimum standard of an average of 3 weeks every month.
Tumblers cannot try the difficult skills until they attend 3 classes in a row for muscle memory and strength.
Dancers will not have a place in the front row at the recital if they do not know their routines. |
