Spring Production 2017

Main Division: May 12 & Children's Division: May 13  

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

Please submit a completed Spring Production agreement form to the Academy office as soon as possible. 

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.

Class Updates

Student Dress Code

We kindly ask that all students adhere to the specific uniforms designated in the Student Handbook. All Academy students (new & returning) should now be transitioned into the new uniforms established for the 2016-2017 Academy Year.

For Academy Director, Sarah Hairston "unity in the classroom is so important. It allows each student to feel part of the group and for instructors to spot technical errors and offer constructive feedback. It has been so exciting for us to walk through the halls and see our students dressed in the uniforms carefully chosen for them."

Class Registration

Registration for the 2016-2017 Academy Year is closing during the month of January. 

Children's Division Registration closed on January 15, 2017. Main Division Registration will be closing this coming Sunday, January 29, 2017. 

Current Academy families, please note that following these dates, current student schedule change requests will only be honored under extenuating circumstances.
