Prices and Payments

The owner puts much thought and consideration into choosing costumes for the recital as to dance appropriateness, fit and style for the student, and budget for the parent.

The instructors will measure each child in December for their costumes. The most important measurement for a girl's costumes is the girth (starting at one shoulder, through the crotch, and back to the same shoulder - to measure around the body.) Costumes do not come in "made to order" sizes. They usually come in S, M, L - child and adult. When measuring and selecting sizes for costumes, we try to accommodate for growth before June as it is much easier to take up than to let out. You are responsible for any costume alterations to your child's costumes that need to be made.

Costumes will be ordered in December/early January. All costume and tuition balances must be up to date before Christmas break or the costumes will absolutely not be ordered.

If your child should quit before costumes are ordered in December, you will receive a refund on the payments you have made, minus a 10% administrative fee. There will be absolutely NO refunds after December 15th.

If your child quits after costumes are already ordered, you will be held responsible for the remaining payments, if any, left on your costume balance. If this balance has not been paid, you forfeit all payments and costumes.
If the costume balance has been paid in full, you may pick up the costume from us AFTER our annual recital. This insures that the costume remains a surprise to our audience and is not seen by anyone before that time.

Items not claimed within 90 days will be forfeited & assumed abandoned and will become the property of Farmington School of Dance, to use or dispose of as they see fit.

Costumes will be handed out on or about the week of May 18^th. Your account balance must be paid in full by that time, including June tuition. Costumes will not be handed out until all accounts are settled in full
