Payment Policies
Registration
- The registration fee is due upon enrollment and the payment will be processed with the billing information provided on the account. This fee is non-refundable.
Tuition for Fall/Spring Session
- All tuition is due on the 1st of each month. Tuition is late after the 9th, and a $20.00 late fee is applied on the 12th of the month.
- We require that a credit card be kept on file with your account. Tuition fees are posted by the first of the month, and must be paid no later than the 9th of the month. Accounts will be placed on auto-pay for the 1st of the month unless we are directed otherwise. For those not using auto-pay, all unpaid balances will be processed on the 9th of the month with the billing information provided on your account. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and checks payable to JWSD. Payments can be made on-line between the 1st and the 8th of the month.
- The price of tuition is based on an average of four classes per month. Some months may have 5 lessons and some have 3 lessons but the tuition remains the same for simplicity. Make-up classes are available for any missed lessons in any age appropriate class during the session.
- WITHDRAWAL FROM CLASSES: If it becomes necessary to withdraw a child from a class, please email us at dropnotice@jwsdcrosspark.com. Notice must be submitted before the first day of your child’s last month. For example: If a drop form is submitted on October 4th, November will be the student’s last month. The parent is responsible for October and November’s tuition. Non-attendance is not considered withdrawal from class.
Tuition Policies for Summer
- Tuition for the summer is paid in full by the first class day of a given session and is non-refundable.
- Students who have not paid full tuition by the first class will be dropped from the class. To continue with the class, the family must pay full tuition with an additional $15 late fee.
Late Fees/Missing Payments
- Payments received are applied to outstanding charges in the order in which they were billed.
- When an account is 30 days overdue, the financially responsible person is notified by email, and must bring the account current within 30 days. If an account is more than 60 days overdue, the financially responsible person is notified by email, the account is deactivated, and the student is restricted from participating until the account is current, or a payment plan is agreed upon with studio manager.
- Accounts must have a $0 balance to participate in recitals and performances.
COVID-19 Policies
Masks (Subject to Change)
All persons age two and up may be required to wear masks while in the studio depending on the COVID situation in Austin.
Sanitizer
We will use hand sanitizer frequently, upon entrance and exit and during class when necessary.
Open and Honest
We ask that if you, your child, or any major point of contact in your lives exhibit symptoms of COVID-19 that you let us know immediately and refrain from joining us in class temporarily. Should your dancer test positive for COVID-19, we will temporarily close the class to in-person lessons and go virtual for 2 weeks while everyone monitors their children. We in turn will make sure everyone in the class is on the same page about the health and safety of the students, whether the risk be from another student or their teacher/s.
Possible Closures
We reserve the right to close our classes and/or studio and go virtual whenever it is deemed necessary. You will always have access to your class online, and if online is not an option you are willing to utilize then you can collect make-up lessons to spend later when we are able to let people into the studio again. Though we will not allow class crossing during the session, we may allot specific "makeup class" days or you can use those missed lessons in the future as a credit towards the summer.
Instances when this may happen are:
a) If the national/state/local government puts in place restrictions that require us to close.
b) If a student/teacher in your class has become infected with COVID-19.
c) If the numbers reach similar peaks as they have in late June/July in Austin and we become uncomfortable with the risk.
Should you decide that you would like to remove yourself from the class due to the temporary closing of in-person lessons, we will still require 30 days notice to drop the class.
