Assumption of Risk
Although I understand that The Dance School will make every reasonable effort to provide a safe environment, I am fully aware of the special dangers and risks inherent with participating in dance, which may include physical injury or other consequences arising or resulting from the program. Being fully aware of the risks, I hereby consent to my child's participation in this program and agree to hold The Dance School, its Instructors, Administrative staff and Board of Directors harmless in any event.
Personal medical insurance is the responsibility of each student (family).
Payment Policies
I understand that, upon registration, a space is held for my student in a class and that I am obligated to pay, in FULL, the tuition for that class, whether my student attends or not. To hold a spot in a class, the registration fee must be paid at the time of registration. Prior to the first class of every month, tuition must be paid. You can choose to make monthly payments, two payments (Sept & Feb) or one payment that covers the entire year. If you choose to take the one payment option, you will receive a 5% discount when paying for entire dance season.
Notice of Withdrawal
If your dancer needs to withdraw from The Dance School, a notice of withdrawal must be given in WRITING to The Dance School office one month in advance. This may be delivered by hand or email. Please note that the tuition balance is due and payable upon withdrawal - unless, you have a physician's written assessment that indicates that the student may not continue to dance. In this case, we will provide a pro-rated refund based on the date of request for withdrawal. Please be advised that the dancer could be re-evaluated if she/he desired to rejoin The Dance School. There is no guarantee that the dancer will be placed in the same level or class as before.
Medical Emergencies
In the event of an accident or illness, I understand that every reasonable effort will be made to contact the parent/guardian immediately. However, if I am unavailable, I authorize The Dance School staff to secure emergency medical care for my child(ren) as needed.
Extended absences due to medical reasons or injury require a doctor's note. Students are encouraged to come and observe classes. Refunds for extended medical absences will be evaluated on an individual basis.
Photo/Video Release
I hereby authorize The Dance School to use photographs and/or video of my child(ren) in promotional materials (brochures, flyers, posters, social media and website) at their discretion.
Privacy Policy
All personal information given to The Dance School is kept private and is not sold, or distributed outside the school.
Inclement Weather
Inclement weather may result in school closure, make-up classes may be added at the end of the term. The Dance School follows the Everett School District's closure policies due to inclement weather for our morning classes (classes schedule before 3:00 pm). Please note that evening classes may be held if weather conditions improve.
Health Protocol
The Dance School will continue virtual class options for dancers who feel ill. I will contact The Dance School's admin via email (admin@thedanceschool.org) or phone call to notify them if my dancer (or myself) will join class virtually. Dancers should stay home if they have felt ill, experiencing symptoms, or had a temperature of 100.4 or higher in the last 48 hours.
COVID-19 Waiver
COVID-19 has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a global pandemic and is
exceedingly contagious. The disease spreads via person-to-person contact and possibly in the air. A
person may be infected by another individual who shows no symptoms. The exact methods for which
COVID-19 spreads and is contracted is unknown and there is no known cure or vaccine. COVID-19 may
cause serious and life-threatening illness and potentially death.
The Dance School is unable to prevent you or your dancer from becoming exposed to, contracting, or
spreading COVID-19 while on The Dance School premises or using The Dance School's equipment. We
are unable to prevent against the presence of COVID-19. Therefore, you may be exposing yourself to
and/or increasing your risk of contracting or spreading COVID-19 if you choose to enter The Dance
School or use the equipment on the premises.
I accept
the risk of contracting COVID-19 for myself and/or my children in order to be on the premises of The
Dance School and to utilize equipment on the premises. The services provided by The Dance School are
such a value to me that rather than using virtual methods of the same services, I accept the risk of being
exposed to, contracting, and/or spreading COVID-19 in order to utilize services on the premises of The
Dance School.
