PARENT OBSERVATION
We provide an outstanding air-conditioned, elevated observation deck for the comfort, convenience and viewing pleasure of Sunbelt parents. You are welcome to observe your child’s participation at any time, but we must insist that spectators remain QUIET and CONSIDERATE of those around them while enjoying our facilities.
If your children accompany you in the observation deck, YOU are responsible for making sure they behave appropriately and remain considerate of others in the room. No gymnastic activity or “horseplay” is allowed in the observation deck or the lobby area.
DRESS CODE
- NO JEWELRY! We are not responsible for lost personal items.
- Girls must wear a leotard. No skirts, shorts or tights are allowed, and long hair must be pulled back.
- Boys should wear athletic shorts and a T-shirt that can be tucked in.
PRIVATE LESSONS
We generally require you to commit to ONE MONTH of private lessons at a time (our experience shows that any shorter duration is likely to provide unacceptable results).
ABSENTEE POLICY
We never overbook our classes, so we cannot guarantee the availability of make-up classes.
Your tuition pays for your reserved place in the class for which you registered. If space does become available in a similar class, we can arrange a make-up lesson for a fee of $5.00. The rescheduling fee is due on the day of the make-up class, prior to participation in the class. This fee compensates Sunbelt for holding a space in the make-up class for your child. Cancellation of an arranged make-up class requires telephone cancellation 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE. Failure to do so will result in your being billed for the make-up class.
BILLING POLICIES
Tuition is billed monthly and is due on the 1st of each month. A $10.00 late fee is charged if your payment is not received by the 7th of the month. You may send us your payment by mail or hand it to one of our office staff at the front counter. You’re also welcome to deposit payments in the drop box (attached to the office door) should you find the office unattended.
If tuition is not received by the 20th of the month, your child will be withdrawn from the program. If you have not received your invoice by the 20th of the month, it is your responsibility to notify us. Our billing schedule ensures that each student receives an average of four lessons per month. Please be aware that holiday closings may cause some months to have only three lessons, while others will have five.
- We do not issue refunds.
- There is a $15.00 charge for returned checks.
- There is a $20-per-hour charge ($5 per 15 min) for supervising children left waiting in our lobby area as the result of “early drop offs” or “late pick ups”.
