CSDA September 2023 Newsletter
Welcome Dancers!
Classes begin Monday, September 11th. We are so excited to see our former dancers and meet our new dancers.
New dance families, if you have not received your Welcome email with information and attached Welcome Booklet it will be coming this week.
Starting the year off right
Our monthly newsletters are emailed out the beginning of the month every month. They are also posted in your portal under files, on our website and posted on the members only Facebook page. Please join our private members page if you haven't already!
https://www.facebook.com/groups/CSDAStudioMembers
Please take a few minutes to read through the newsletter when you receive it. This is to ensure you know what is going on in the studio. Plus! We like to throw in photos of our dancers and achievements (dance and non-dance related), maybe your dancer made it in the newsletter!
If you have moved, changed your phone number or email we need to know. Please make sure your information is up to date in your portals throughout the season. We don't want you to miss any important information.
Viewing Policy & Sick Policy
You will be able to watch your dancers during class. This is a secured zoom link through your parent portal. There will be video, no audio, like a closed circuit tv. To access the zoom, click the camera icon under today's schedule in your parent portal. Please remember to mute your mics and turn off your camera while watching.
For illnesses please follow the same policy as schools. If your child is under the weather please keep your dancer home. You are able to take a make up class for missed classes. Make up classes can be taken at either studio and must be a comparable or lower level class. Email the studio for availability.
Absences can be logged in your parent portal by clicking attendance, then report absence.
Reminder, dancers need to address teachers with Mr & Miss, i.e., Miss Tiffany.
