1) Recital costumes and orders are due Nov 20th. Please be sure to fill out the costume form and get me the measurements.  I will try to measure everyone in class so I can double check costume sizes but I still need the other information from everyone please. You can log into the parent portal to pay for the costume, write a check, cash, or send money via PayPal Heathersdancestjohns@gmail.com, Venmo @heather-reed-180, cash app 517-256-2074.

2) If you are able to help with a costume angel, we appreciate all the support.  You could write a check or drop cash in an envelope with costume angel written on it.  If you NEED a costume financial assistance, please reach out and we will get you on the list.  We have never had to deny anyone, but sometimes it takes a bit of time to get all the needed funds.

4) Reminder with weather coming:  If school is cancelled due to weather that does NOT mean the dance is cancelled.  Be sure to check the studio Facebook, IG pages and website.  A determination will be made by 12:00 that day.  If roads clear up, we will still have classes.  Do not assume that classes are cancelled.
