Dear Students and Parents,

It’s hard to believe, but the spring semester is coming to a close. The summer schedule will be announced in the next few weeks. Please have your tuition to me before the end of the spring term on Friday, June 21st. Thanks to all the dancers for their hard work this year. Your dancing has improved greatly since the fall! Thanks also to Joy & Mike Pell and Jill Savage for all their efforts as head parents.

Mòran Taing,

Maggie Carchrie
