Attendance Policy
Attendance is mandatory for Rhythmix tap team dancers. When children miss a class, they must get caught up on the skills and choreography already taught. This takes up class time away from those dancers who do not need a review. As a result, the class progresses more slowly.
A dancer will be considered tardy if they have not arrived by the time class starts.
A dancer will be considered tardy if they are not in uniform.
Two tardies = 1 absence
Parents/Guardians must contact Susan Peterson before 5:00 p.m. by phone, text, or email if a dancer is going to be absent due to illness or injury.
State your name and the dancer’s name
Give a reason for the absence.

Not contacting Susan Peterson and not attending class will result in 2 absences.
If you have a family event or vacation planned, please contact Susan Peterson at least 2 weeks in advance.
Dancers have a total of 49 classes which equals only 36.75 hours. Dancers who miss more than 4 classes will be declared ineligible and will be unable to attend the upcoming performances, events, and competitions with the team. Families will be responsible for paying any outstanding balance due plus a $250 fee for Susan Peterson having to rework and re-block the routine. Dancers may choose to continue to attend classes and learn along with their peers.
If the dancer becomes injured, the parent/guardian agrees to take them to a physician or chiropractor for an evaluation upon the onset of the injury and will provide written results of the evaluation to Susan Peterson within 2 weeks of the onset of the injury.
If the dancer is unable to participate in the Rhythmix tap team due to ongoing illness or injury the parent/guardian agrees to pay 50% of the tuition due during the duration the dancer is unable to participate.
