Dress Code

Students must come to class in the proper attire. Failure to do so will result in a notice to the parents, and if it continues to occur that dancer will be asked to sit out until the proper attire is worn. Hair must be up for all classes, as well as no gum, jewelry or bare legs.   Please see the following guidelines:
