COMMITMENT & ATTENDANCE
The study of the Performing Arts requires desire, commitment and a love for the respective art. In most of our courses, students are required to make a full year's commitment, as the program is progressive and depends on weekly development and assessment. Therefore, our attendance requirements are as follows, with exceptions made for students with a valid medical excuse:

• Session A & Session B - more than 2 missed classes (per session) will result in the student being withdrawn from the course, and no refund will be issued.
• Full Year Courses - more than 4 missed classes will result in the student being withdrawn from the course, and no refund will be issued.
• During the first two weeks of classes student abilities are still being assessed by instructors, therefore some students may be transferred from one course to another at a more appropriate level. Final placement and/or acceptance of students will be done by the instructor.
• Missed classes - Lessons cancelled by the instructor will be made up during the teaching session, or at the end of the season. Make up classes will not be provided for student cancellations in any private or group program.
• Courses, classes, instructors and fees are subject to change or deletion at the discretion of the School.

WITHDRAWALS/CANCELLATIONS

• Withdrawals will be accepted up to two weeks prior to the commencement of classes. A 10% administrative charge ($15 minimum), will be applied. Withdrawal during the two weeks prior to the start date will be charged 20% of the program fee ($30 minimum).
• Any student withdrawing from a course after the first week of classes will not be given a refund; however, credit at the JCC for the remainder of the course fees can be applied to your account, for use at the JCC.
• Transfer to other courses, except at the suggestion of teacher for reasons of ability, will be assessed a $10 fee.

BEHAVIOUR AND DRESS CODE
Studying in the Performing Arts requires commitment and an atmosphere of support and enthusiasm. We expect all students to treat their classmates and instructors with respect, to show up on time and to wear clothing appropriate to the course of study. Any student deemed by the instructor to be behaving in a manner that is destructive to the class, will be dismissed from the course with no refund for fees.Expectations: Participants studying in one class for 1 to 1.5 hours per week are essentially studying at a recreational level. Students wishing to study at a more intensive level should plan to enroll in more than one class per discipline.

PAYMENT OF FEES
A student is not deemed registered until all fees are paid in full. No spots will be held or reserved. GST is applied to all registrants 15 years of age or older. Fees must be paid in full at the time of registration. All payments are due before the commencement of the classes.
Full year session payments may be divided in 3 installments, through credit/debit card payment plan only.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
We are pleased to provide partial financial assistance through the Dena Wosk Memorial Bursary Fund of the Jewish Community Foundation. Please apply at the Front Desk.
