“Dedicated to the Arts”
Enrollment
The Dancing School year is September through May. A student is expected to continue through the month of May. We do not accept students on a trial basis. A student dropping out in the middle of the year leaves the class with a vacancy that may not be easily filled at that time-but which could have been easily filled at the beginning of the year.
Dancer Enrollment for 2009-2010 will be held at the Judith McCarty School of Dancing on
August 11th - 12th and 13th
from 4pm to 7pm in Studio 2

Placement
The placement of any student must be left entirely up to the faculty and the Artistic Director. A graded system and placement of students according to training, age and ability or effort guarantees the steady progress of each class and the self confidence of the students. Promotion to more advanced instruction is considered on the basis of individual achievement.
Classes are not necessarily promoted as groups. Home practice is very important to every student’s progress and the time and place for it should be arranged with the help of the parents at the most convenient time for both the student and the family. Students should never perform at school or elsewhere until they have completed at least one year of dance training. The school should always be informed of any program on which the student is invited to participate as their performance in a reflection of the school, and it is of mutual concern that the dance be well rehearsed. If students enter pageants, etc., we will be happy to work with them privately. Recital Dances may not be used for other programs before the Recital.
Holidays-Starting Day-Snow Days
Classes will begin the day after Labor Day and will continue in the studios through May. We will observe holidays on the Thanksgiving weekend (Wednesday through Sunday). Christmas and Spring Break holidays will be taken on the same days as Texarkana Independent School District. Also, we will be closed due to inclement weather whenever TISD announced closings.
Visitors Days
The school has visitation days during the months of October, December and February. Visitors Day is the first two weeks of these months. Your attendance gives the teachers an opportunity to discuss the progress of your child. Out of town visitors my visit at times other than those listed.
