Procedures
In order to facilitate traffic, please enter the property from Zetterower Avenue and exit onto Donaldson Street. Please drop off and pick up your child at the sunroom door on the side of the building. Please do NOT park in the drop-off lane to walk your child in. If you are a student driving yourself, please park behind the building. Parking is available for parents and student drivers behind SSOD. Please, be respectful of the Split Ends’ business and customers by not using their parking lot.
Performance Etiquette
Performance is a group activity. Everyone should be equally prepared in order to produce the best performance possible. Therefore, students performing in recital and other performances MUST attend all rehearsals. Failure to attend rehearsals will result in being removed from the upcoming performance.
Attendance Policy
Students are strongly encouraged to attend all classes. Those missing more than 25% of classes or rehearsals may be removed from a performance or risk having their role performed by an understudy. This decision is up to the instructor.
