Students in Pre-Ballet I-IV may make up a class at their Ballet Level. Students in Ballet I – VII should make up a class in a Ballet below where they are enrolled. Absences that were excused prior to the missed class may be made-up within 30 days after the missed class. All other absences are categorized as unexcused and may be made up within 14 days after the missed class. Students may make-up classes a maximum of 3 times per semester. (Semester I: September – December, Semester II: January – June). Make-ups do not roll over to the next session and there are no refunds for missed classes. Students must be currently enrolled to make up classes. Students who are no longer enrolled are no longer considered students of the school and forfeit all make-up classes.
Enrollment is for a full school-year program. The office must be notified of withdrawal in writing.
Failure to attend class does not constitute a withdrawal. Withdrawals are fully acceptable in the case of a family move or student injury. Other cases should be discussed with the Artistic Director or the Youth Program Coordinator before a final decision is made. Tuition will continue to accrue and the parent or guardian is responsible for this amount until written notice is received. Tuition is not refunded except in the case of a family move or injury that requires withdrawal. If a Tuition refund is granted under these circumstances, it will be prorated as of the 1st of the month following the written notice. Tuition will not be held as credit or carried on into the next school year. Please allow four weeks for approved refunds to be processed.
Students must enroll for the entire year. Western Ballet’s youth program runs from September – June. Western Ballet allows enrollment throughout the year, tuition will be pro-rated.
