DROP/CHANGE POLICY
If you choose to drop a class or discontinue classes with the Superstars, you must fill out a drop/change form with the receptionist by the 20th of the month. Informing the teacher or failure to report to class does not constitute a drop. If a class is dropped after the 20th of the month the account will be charged for the following month’s tuition and any applicable fees; accounts will continue to be charged until a drop/change form is completed or written communication is provided to the directors.

In the event a student needs to change classes please complete a change form with the receptionist by the 20th of the month. Once the change request is processed the account will be updated and any difference in monthly payment will be applied to the account unless otherwise instructed by the requestor.

NO REFUNDS
We limit our class size and each child has reserved a spot that could have gone to another student

GENERAL POLICIES
Attire
Any form-fitting dancewear allowing students to stretch & move is acceptable – NO JEANS. Hair must be pulled away from face. We will not compromise on this rule as it is for each child's safety.

Communications
Communication will be sent to the email address provided at registration as well as the website. Please read these communications and be sure to check the website for updates!!! This is the best form of communication we have for relaying important information. It is the parents and students responsibility to be aware of what is happening at the studio.

Insurance
The Superstars Performing Arts Academy does not carry medical insurance for its students. It is required that all students be covered by their own family insurance policies. In the event of an injury, it is understood that the student's own policy is the only source of reimbursement.

Snow Days
The studio will follow the weather cancellations of the Norwalk Community School District. If they deem it unsafe for children to be out on the road and cancel school for the day or let school out early, studio classes will not be held. If in doubt, call the studio for a recording or check the website on whether classes will be held or not.

Cancellations due to weather will NOT be refunded.

Holidays
Holidays will generally follow school schedules. Vacation dates will be posted on the website as well as on the studio calendar received at registration. We do not close for Martin Luther King Holiday, President’s Day, school conferences, teacher workdays, or other miscellaneous school closings.

Attendance
All students must attempt to attend all regularly scheduled classes. Good attendance is imperative, as absences and tardiness can hold back an entire class. No refunds will be given for missed classes.

Solos
Solos for the recital are reserved for seniors that have taken lessons with the Superstars for 5 consecutive years. Each senior will perform his/her solo in one recital if they wish. All other special numbers for the recital will be selected by the directors and must be choreographed by Superstars staff.

Senior solos are a privilege to perform at recital and the directors refuse the right to refuse a senior solo request for non compliance with the Superstars policies on attendance. Any senior wanting to perform a solo must contact a staff member regarding the solo request; staff members will not contact the seniors regarding a solo.

Conferences with Instructors
Conferences may be arranged with instructors at any time if deemed necessary. All conferences must be scheduled through the office – not the teacher. Please do not conference with teachers during and/or between classes.

If you have questions, feedback, or concerns for the directors please feel free to email us at [email protected]
