Dance Costumes Going Home Next Week!

Dance costumes will be sent home starting next week. We do have a couple of size exchanges we are still waiting on and we will send those home as soon as they come in.

If you are absent next week your teacher will give you your costume the following week. Some costumes include tights, please have your dancer try them on to ensure they fit. Let us know if you have any issues.

Each class has a Performance Appearance image uploaded to the class resources. To access you'll log into the portal, via the website or SCD App. Click on My Account, and scroll down until you see the class card for the class/es your child is enrolled, on the class card you'll see View Resources, click on View Resources and see Performance Appearance. That will open a image of the costume, with hair instructions, costume instructions, and shoes.

The third info packet about Dance Concert is now available.

This packet includes:

  • Tips for a smooth show

  • Reminders for before, during, and after the show

  • Drop-off/pick-up procedures for dancers

  • Dress rehearsal & show order

  • Picture day schedule (photo order form coming soon)

    Be sure to read through the whole packet! We highly recommend printing it off and highlighting the parts that pertain to your dancer!

Volunteer sign-ups are posted at the studio. All volunteer slots must be filled before show tickets go on sale. If you volunteer you do get a free ticket code, unless you are an usher since you already get to see the show for free.

There are a lot of moving parts to make this weekend run as smoothly as possible and we couldn’t do it with your help!

Bake sale sign-ups will be going up in the lobby this week too. You can also email reception what you plan to bring and to what show.

Also, new this year we have a photographer taking pictures during the performances. All families will have free access to the digital images after the shows.
