*Please do not
use the ribbons that need to be tied with the tap shoes. Any kind of elastic
that will allow the student to slip the shoes on and off with as minimal help
as possible is beneficial to everybody in the class.
PLEASE NOTE:
After much discussion and analysis, I have decided to forgo the leotard
requirement of past years for children starting at the age of 12.HOWEVER, my preference is still that
every child wears a leotard.Tank
tops and jazz pants MUST be TIGHT and absolutely no PJ pants or baggy shirts
will ever be allowed in class.Hair must be pulled back in ponytails.The dress code is mandatory and students are expected to
abide by it.
