School Policies

Registration
A non-refundable registration fee is expected when registering all students. ($10 for School year) ($5 Summer) Students are not admitted to class until paperwork is on file and registration fee plus first tuition payment is paid.

Tuition for each session is due the first week of classes
Payments received on or after the 10th day of the session will be assessed a $10.00 late fee. This applies during holidays, over weekends, and if the student is absent from class.

A Sliding Scale is available. It is a simple process.

There is no family discount available.

Tuition payments can be given to the instructor or mailed to:

Living Fountain Dance Company
P.O. Box 9015
Canton, Ohio 44711-9015

Please write the first and last name of the student on payments. For payment given to instructors, please use an envelope. If you have questions concerning your account, please call LFDC’s voicemail at 330-649-0773 and leave a message.

A $25.00 fee will be charged for all checks returned.
 
 
Cancellations
From time to time, it may be necessary to cancel classes because of snow, or conditions beyond our control. We reserve the right to cancel classes. If severe weather conditions are present, call the voicemail after 2pm
and you can obtain information on cancellations from a voice recorded message. 330-649-0773.
 
 
Withdrawal
There are no refunds for class sessions already paid for.
 
 

Make-up Classes
A class may be made-up or substituted only for illness, injury, family emergency, or instructor’s permission. (Females missing class because of discomfort due to menstrual cycle are not excused: in fact, it has been proven that exercise will help decrease the symptoms). Instructor will only give permission to students in good standing. Do not miss the classes you have committed to.

Class must be made up within 30 days from the date of absence.

Be sure to introduce yourself to the instructor when you arrive in a class you’re not registered for. Refunds are not given.
 
 

Arrival and Departure
Arrival
Children under age 7 must be accompanied to class by an adult and arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before class time. Students must be picked up promptly after class. We will not be responsible for children after class time. Parents: please do not ask LFDC instructors or volunteers to watch your children after class time.

Late Arrival
Tardiness is embarrassing for the child and disruptive for the class and instructor. However, we understand that it is sometimes unavoidable. Please be courteous to the instructor and warm-up for class near the edge of the room. Students who are continually late will be fined $2. A $2 fine will be charged to your account on the fourth tardy.

All students should use the restroom before class.
 
 

Special Requests for Parents
Parents, we take our responsibility to teach your children very seriously. For this reason we ask that you and your family not congregate in the hall during class time. The crowding and noise interferes with classes and our staff carrying out their duties.

Please be sure to mark you calendars for parent observation weeks. This is the only time for you to see the progress students make. Please don’t miss it.

You are invited to attend:

  • The last week of the 1st and 2nd Session.
  • The Annual Dance Summary in June (TBA)

If you need to speak with an instructor, please call to make an appointment. It’s important to us that we begin class on time. Please be considerate of this request.
