Parent Observation

NEXT WEEK, February 27 - March 5, we invite parents/guardians into the studio classroom to observe their student in class. This is a wonderful opportunity to step inside the studios to witness all of their hard work and progress so far this season! We kindly ask that you limit the number of observers to 2 people per student to allow for comfortable seating for all who attend. 

*Note* - Children's Division classes in Studio D will be emailed separately tomorrow with an observation plan.

We are excited to elevate the performance experience for students and families by moving to the Matthews Auditorium & Performing Arts Center at Princeton High School. Please note the new dates above!

CHILDREN'S DIVISION

As instructors begin to rehearse their Spring Production pieces, student attendance in their regularly scheduled class is essential as all Children's Division classes perform a different piece. 

If your student is going to be absent from class, please contact the Academy office at 513.562.1111 so we can inform the instructor and schedule a make-up class if desired.

MAIN DIVISION

As instructors are beginning to rehearse their Spring Production pieces, student attendance in their scheduled "performance class" is essential. Students may not incur more than two (2) excused absences as we prepare for a successful performance. 

Save the date for Main Division Costume Fittings: Week of March 20. Costume fitting schedule to be announced at a later date.
