~2010-11 calendar

September through

all the same days off that the local

~class observation weeks for 10-11
All our classrooms have viewing windows so that parents can sneak a
peak at class any time. We know you are anxious to see your
child's progress but please keep in mind that standing too close to the
glass, pecking on the windows or waving is distracting to all the
students in the room and hinders the teacher in keeping them focused on
their lessons.
Parents are invited in to observe classes 2 times throughout our main
session. Weeks are listed below. For our summer classes,
observation is the last class of each session. Visitors observing
in the classroom is
limited for three reasons;
- It is more difficult for parents to notice their child's progress by
constant watching
- Many children become easily distracted by visitors in the
classroom thus hindering their progress.
- Our youngest students
are especially upset by visitors in the room and may not feel
comfortable participating as they normally do.
november 8th - 13th

march 14th - 19th

Please feel
free to speak to your child’s instructor at any time to learn you child’s
progress.
~snow closings
We do not necessarily close when the local
schools close as our situation is very different than theirs.
In case of inclement weather, (i.e. bad snow, ice storms,
etc.) please check this website
or
check the studio voice mail.
If we must cancel in the middle of the evening, we will make phone calls to
let you know as early as possible.
Cancelled classes will be made up in late spring.
