SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER

Dear Parents –

We are so excited to have you all back at the studio! We welcome you and have missed you! And everyone that is new to the studio, we are so glad you have joined us! We hope you had a great summer and we are excited for some new teachers, and the upcoming year.

Please understand that MOST of the communication from this point on will be emailed to you. Please check your Studio Director account and make sure your email information is correct so you receive all correspondence. Watch for our monthly Newsletter that will be emailed sometime the first week of each new month and will be posted to our website. It is timpschoolofdance.blogspot.com. I have attached a calendar of all the days this year that the studio will be closed. Below are a few more items of information for you to go over for the month of September.

Please go to timpschoolofdance.blogspot.com and look over our policy page. Some information has changed and you need to be aware of it. You may want to bookmark this website. The blog will have a lot of information on it throughout the year. Check it often!

Tami Meacham is still the Studio Owner, but Heidi Panter is now the Studio Manager. She will have the studio phone (801-602-9196) with her at all times and she will be the one answering emails (timpschoolofdance@gmail.com). If you have any questions, please direct them to her.

We are not doing our usual Nutcracker performance this year. We have instead decided to do a recital that will involve all of the classes. It will be “What Christmas Means to Me”. We are very excited about this, and look forward to involving more of the girls in the performance. The date for this performance is on our calendar, so mark them in your personal calendars early so that your children can participate in this great show! Costume fees will be $50 per ballet or combo class, $40 for Jazz classes, and $10 for Tumbling and Hip-Hop classes. They will be due the first week in October. You will receive an email with details about what dance your child’s class has been assigned in the October Newsletter.

PARENT DROP OFF & PICK UP GUIDELINES

- Upon entering the Timpanogos School of Dance Driveway, please maintain a single file line in a circle going around the parking area starting on the right side and coming around to the “no parking zone” (on the west side of the studio by the sidewalk into the studio). This no parking zone is for STUDENTS ONLY. Please do not pull in and park or wait for students that way.

- Vehicles should pull up to the most forward spot in the circle line up before stopping. Parents should remain in the vehicle. Please do not block the “no parking zone”. Again this area is reserved for students waiting for their rides and for drop-off.

- Please wait to drop off or pick up students until you are the 1st car in the line. Then pull away and exit the parking lot so that the others behind you may pull forward.

- If you exit your car you must park along the east or south side of the yellow barn. If you are in the drop off/pick up circle please remain in your car at all times. You may also park along the road on the North side of the studio.

- If you need to run into the dance studio for any reason, you should park in the parking areas. Do not leave your car unattended in the circle.


Thank you all so much for your support, please feel free to call or email with any questions or concerns that you have about your children.

Most questions can be answered at the website, but if you need help, please feel free to call or email.

Classes Filling Up

As the start of our Fall Season nears, classes are filling up quickly! If you go online to register and it won't let you because the class is full, please put your student's name on the waitlist. Then, also register her in any other class that she may want to take. For example, if you would like your daughter in Combo 5, register her on the waitlist for that class and then also register her for Combo 6/7 or Combo 4. That way, you are guaranteed a spot in a class, but if things get shifted in the first few weeks, you may get into the Combo 5 class you are on the waitlist for. If you are wanting your daughter in Hip Hop, please put her on the waitlist. If we get enough on the waitlist, we will open another class. If you have any questions about anything, please contact Heidi at 801-602-9196 or timpschoolofdance@gmail.com.

Classes Begin the week of September 5th!!!

Classes will begin the week of September 5th, except for the Monday classes, which will start on September 12th. This has changed recently, so make sure you check your calendars and make this change!
