DSOD Recital Student Release Policy
Our goal at the recital performance is to create a positive and happy experience for all of our students, families, and guests. We are committed to providing an enjoyable atmosphere at our dance recital performance.
All of our teachers, staff, and volunteers are professional and caring with your children. We are committed to the safety of all of our students and have your child’s best interests at heart. To ensure the safe and enjoyable running of our dance recital, Debbie’s School Of Dance implements the following student release policy:
It remains the policy of Debbie’s School Of Dance to release only pre-ballet students (ages 3-4 years) during intermission at the recital. These students are released to their parent or guardian only if a written note has been received from the student’s parent or guardian by May 30th. Any change (after deadline) regarding student pick up, including “second” parent pick up must be submitted in writing and signed by both parents. No notes will be accepted the day of the dress rehearsal or the recital. All other students must remain back stage until the recital performance is over. Recital efforts can be hectic backstage. We hope you understand that with so many students and for everyone’s safety, we cannot release them at any time.
Any parent who chooses not to respect our student release policy will be prohibited from registering their child for dance in the future.
THIS IS MANDATORY FOR ALL DANCERS. Please confirm your receipt and review of the DSOD student release policy below. Approval by BOTH parents/guardians is required and DUE by May 30! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to work with your children!
