Dancers' Code of Conduct

• A positive attitude and disciplined behavior is necessary to ensure a rewarding and productive dance class.
  
• Please be respectful to your teachers and fellow students. We expect all students, children and adults, to follow the directions of their teacher during the class. Questions and concerns maybe discussed with the teacher after class in a respectful manor
  
• Be considerate to other students by allowing others adequate floor space and making sure the back row students are able to access the mirror. No one has a reserved spot in the first row. Please stay to the side or back of the room if entering the class late.
  
• Don't "act up" in class- maintain self control. Being a show-off or a know-it-all is distracting to the instructor as well as the other students who are there to learn.
  
• Performance – this pertains to children and adults who participate in any of the SunnyU performances
  
1. Parents are responsible for the cost of costumes for children. Unless otherwise notified, costumes for adults are generally provided by SunnyU.
2. Transportation to and from the performances are the responsibilities of students/parents
3. Instructors/choreographers have the right to decide who should participate in each dance piece and the positions of each dancer. We expect all students and parents to respect the authority of instructors/choreographers and to follow their directions
4. If you choose to participate in any of the SunnyU performances, we ask that you commit yourself to attend all practices and rehearsals. Students who miss more than 2 practices (rehearsals included) within two months before the date of the show may jeopardize their eligibility to perform. Performing in a show is a team work and takes great efforts from everyone in the performing group. To ensure the cohesiveness and integrity of the group, we ask for your commitment to the group. Unless otherwise approved in writing by SunnyU management, if you choose to perform with other similar dance group, we ask that you do not participate in our performance. This does not apply to students who take classes at other similar organization without performing with the other organization. This also does not apply to students taking classes and performing with other non-similar organization in Ballet, Jazz, etc. (but not Chinese Folk Dance). SunnyU reserves the right to determine whether an organization/class is of a similar nature

Note to Parents

• Maintain a positive attitude and give uplifting feedback to students. Have a great time watching your children grow and learn
  
• Drop off and pick up student(s) on time. SunnyU is NOT responsible for children outside of the classroom.
  
• Do not leave children unattended at the studio. Your children and their conduct is your responsibility. If you bring additional children to wait while class is in session, bring something for them to sit and do quietly. Unruly behavior of children in the waiting area will not be tolerated.
  
• We will offer observations of your children on their last class of the session. This will give you a chance to check on their progress periodically! We ask you to please respect your child's and the other children's learning environment by asking you to please quietly wait in the waiting room. Calling your child's name or reprimanding them during or after class in front of others causes a distraction not only to the teachers, but to the other students. On that last observation day, please feel free to take pictures (but please no video taping). You are also welcome to invite friends and families. We understand that is a special time for you! Thank you for your support and understanding!
