Spring is Springing...
We're off for VT/RU spring break, and other updates
Hi everyone,
Hard to believe we’re at midterm in the semester, and spring is in the air! (Though I’m still not counting out a March blizzard, given how weather in the NRV tends to function…) A few quick but important reminders below:
Spring Break(s)
We will be off for spring break next week, Saturday March 4th - Friday March 10th. Classes will resume on Saturday, March 11th.
We’ll also be taking time off the week of the MCPS spring break; during that week, we will be off Tuesday, April 4 - Monday, April 10. Classes will resume on Tuesday, April 11th.
RECITAL DATE SHIFT
As much as we try to plan ahead, it seems like every year there is a conflict with our initially planned recital dates. This year is no different, and due to several unforeseen reasons, we need to shift our rehearsal and performance to FRIDAY, MAY 5 (dress rehearsal at 5:30 pm) and SUNDAY, MAY 7 (performance at 4 pm).
The spring semester will still continue through the weekend of May 20.
Please update your calendars accordingly - we so appreciate your flexibility, and we are already looking forward to showing off what your dancers have been up to all semester.
Summer Camp Dates
We know that everyone is eager to get their summers planned, especially considering the Olympic sport that is municipal camp signup every spring. Our registration is not yet open, but we wanted to give you some dates to hold for your planning purposes! We will plan to open registration by Friday, March 17th, and will be sure to send you an email reminder ahead of time.
Each camp will include dance training, arts & crafts, and a final performance for family and friends on the last day of camp! More details on camp themes and daily schedules coming soon.
