WHY WON’T THE REGISTRATION SYSTEM LET ME SELECT THE CLASS I WANT?
There are a couple legitimate things that could be happening: 1) A student’s age does not fall within the class age range. 2) A class is full. 3) There is a real system error.
If you have any questions or problems while registering, please contact Jessica Kotrla at [email protected].
DO YOU ISSUE REFUNDS?
No, sorry, we do not issue refunds. All registration payments are final. The exception to this would be if there were not enough students to hold a class; then all registrants would receive back their tuition.
HOW EARLY MAY I DROP MY CHILD OFF?
We ask that students do not arrive any earlier than 15 minutes prior to class time. While NYT staff may be on premises, they are busy setting up and cannot be responsible for supervising children until that time. We also ask that you pick your children up promptly when classes are over so that the front desk attendant may complete their duties and close up the building by the end of our contract time.
MAY I STAY IN CLASS WITH MY CHILD?
No, parents are asked to drop off their children and return to pick them up when class is over for a few reasons: 1) We require a background check on all adults who are in proximity to our students. 2) Rooms do not have space to accommodate students and parents. 3) Having parents in class may have an unintended disruptive effect. If a child deals with separation anxiety, it is usually resolved more easily when the parent drops the child off at the beginning of class. Our teachers are good at getting kids acclimated to class time.
WILL STUDENTS HAVE A CHANCE TO EAT DINNER?
It depends on which nights your kids attend. Mondays there is an official 30-minute dinner break. On those nights, the moms of the Studio Company dance members sell pizza and snacks as a fundraiser. Most other classes and nights have 10 minutes between for a quick snack and rest. The exception is Thursday at our TMC location, which does not have any breaks. Students go from one class straight to the next class at that location.
DO YOUR TEACHERS HAVE BACKGROUND CHECKS?
Absolutely!
