TUITION POLICIES 21-22 - PLEASE READ
Our dance curriculum follows a planned progression throughout the entire school year. The best benefit and progress for each student will come from consistent attendance for the whole dance school year. The school year is Sept. 11, 2021 – June 13, 2022.
~ Each class will meet a minimum of 34 times during the school year. Should any one class meet less than 34 times due to bad weather, etc., make-up classes are available.
~ In case of inclement weather, please call the studio 1 hour before your class to see if dance has been cancelled. Classes MAY be held even if academic school is cancelled, so please CALL 978-475-5919 to listen to our message, or check our Facebook page.
- Registration Fee: A non-refundable annual Registration Fee of $30 max per family is due at time of registration.

- Tuition:
- The year’s tuition has been divided into 10 equal monthly installments for the 10-month school year, September through June. The first monthly installment plus the registration fee will be due & must be paid at time of registration & enrollment.
- Tuition is the same each month, regardless of the number of class weeks in any one month, and is due on the first day of each month, with a late fee added after the 7th day of the month.
- Tuition is based on how many hours per week a student studies at ASB and the number of weeks in the studio year. As each student enrolls in more classes per week, she/he receives a discounted hourly rate from the base rate, up to a certain high number of hours/week.
- Payments / Fees: You may make secure monthly installment payments using your credit card through our online registration system. Payments are due on the first of the month, and a $10.00 late fee will be added after 7 days.
- If you prefer to pay by a different payment method (cash/check), please contact the studio by email to set this up.
- Semi-annual Payments: A 7% discount will be applied to semi-annual (2 per year) payments if paid by cash or check. The discount will be 5% if paid by credit card. If you wish to make a semi-annual payment, please contact the studio by email for this to be set up.
- To receive this discount, the semi-annual payments must be received in full by September 30th and January 30th. These payments are non-refundable.
- Add/Drop Policy: Students may add or drop classes at anytime throughout the year.
