Dreamlight Dance Studio
Parent & Student Code of Conduct
At Dreamlight Dance Studio, we are committed to creating a positive, welcoming, and respectful environment where every child can learn, grow, and feel supported. By registering with Dreamlight Dance Studio, parents/guardians and students agree to the following expectations:
Respect & Kindness
• Treat all students, parents, instructors, staff, and volunteers with kindness, respect, and courtesy.
• Bullying, harassment, discrimination, gossip, intimidation, or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.
• Encourage good sportsmanship, teamwork, and positive attitudes both inside and outside of class.
Parent Communication
• We ask that all communication remain respectful and professional.
• If a concern arises, please observe our 24-Hour Rule. We kindly ask that parents wait at least 24 hours before discussing concerns regarding classes, instructors, or studio matters. This allows time for emotions to settle and promotes productive, respectful conversations.
• Concerns should be discussed privately with studio management and never in front of students or other families.
• Parents are asked not to interrupt instructors before, during, or immediately after class while they are supervising students.
Observation & Waiting Area
• Due to limited space, only one parent or guardian may accompany a student into the studio.
• Siblings, additional family members, and guests are not permitted inside the studio during class unless approved by studio management.
• Dreamlight Dance Studio has a small waiting and observation area. If the lobby reaches capacity, parents may be asked to wait outside or in their vehicle until class concludes.
• Please help keep walkways, entrances, and exits clear at all times.
Student Expectations
Students are expected to:
• Listen to instructors and follow directions.
• Show respect toward classmates and staff.
• Use appropriate language and behavior.
• Keep hands, feet, and personal belongings to themselves.
• Take care of studio property and equipment.
• Participate with a positive attitude and encourage fellow dancers.
Safety
• Students should remain with their instructor until released to their approved pick-up person.
• Running, roughhousing, climbing on furniture, or unsafe behavior inside the studio is prohibited.
Social Media
• We encourage families to celebrate their dancers while maintaining respect for all students and instructors.
• Negative, false, or defamatory comments about the studio, instructors, students, or other families—whether made in person or on social media—may be grounds for dismissal from the program.
Studio Policies
• Families agree to follow all studio policies, procedures, tuition policies, and waivers.
• Please ensure students arrive on time and are prepared for class.
• Notify the studio as soon as possible if your child will be absent.
Right to Refuse Service
Dreamlight Dance Studio reserves the right to refuse or discontinue services to any student or family whose behavior is disruptive, abusive, threatening, or repeatedly violates studio policies. Our goal is to maintain a safe, positive, and enjoyable environment for all families.
By enrolling in Dreamlight Dance Studio, parents/guardians and students acknowledge that they have read, understand, and agree to abide by this Parent & Student Code of Conduct.
