All students should have a dance bag with their dance shoes labeled with the child's name. This bag will go with them into the classroom. This requirement is to protect your child's property and to maximize your child's classroom time by staying in the classroom to change shoes.
Lost and Found
Please mark all dancewear, shoes, and personal items with your child's name. We will make every effort to locate and return lost items; however, we cannot be responsible for any items that your child brings to class. Each location has a lost and found bin that we place items left behind in. We will empty the bins once a quarter and donate reusable items to a local charity. You will receive an email when we are preparing the items for donation. Encourage your student to double check that they have everything before they leave the studio and to check the lost and found frequently. Please note that socks, tights, under garments and water bottles will be thrown out if they are left behind.
We installed hooks under the observation windows of both Studio B and Studio C. Please hang your dancer's outside clothes/jackets on these hooks. Please also place your child's street shoes on the floor mat outside the studio and under the hooks. Children should bring their dance bag into the classroom.
There are coat racks along the wall outside of Studio B. Older students should hang their jackets up on a hanger here. Outside shoes should be placed outside of the studio or in the student lounge. All dancers are required to bring their dance bag into the classroom for class. Anything of value, including phones, wallets, electronics, and car keys, must be stored in their dance bag (phones on silent or off, please!). By observing this policy, students always have their class supplies and possessions with them so they are not wasting class time leaving the space to get ready and ensuring their valuables are kept safe.

We installed hooks under the observation of Studio C. Please hang your dancer's outside clothes/jackets on these hooks when your child takes class in Studio C and put their outside shoes on the mat under the hooks. Children in Studio B may put their shoes on the mat outside of Studio B. Hooks will be installed soon, but until then, we ask that parents hold their dancers' coats until after class. Children should bring their dance bag into the classroom.
There are two dancer lounges at the West Bend studio. The room closest to the bathrooms is for levels 6 and higher. The room closest to the studios is for students in Levels 2-5.
