We offer 1-week camps for children, and a full schedule of classes in an ongoing 7-week session.

7-WEEK CLASS SESSION
WHAT CLASSES TO TAKE
All formerly enrolled CCB dancers from the 2023-24 school year should remain in the same level for the summer session unless otherwise notified. Please email charmcityballet@gmail.com if you're unsure about class placement. To understand our class offerings more thoroughly, visit our CLASS DESCRIPTIONS.
CLASS PLACEMENT
Class placements are based on the level of individual dancers at the discretion of their teachers and in consultation with the directors, and age is not the primary factor in level placement. Auditions are not required to join our program, but we may ask a dancer to take a placement class to determine level. If you are new to CCB, please email charmcityballet@gmail.com for assistance in class placement.
DEDICATION AND COMMITMENT
Dancers are required to be on time, properly dressed (following our dress code), and ready to begin class at the start time. Please email us if you are going to be late or absent. If students are more than 10 minutes late, they may be asked, at the teacher’s discretion, to observe class for safety reasons.

Summer class tuition is set up like our Elective or Adult Divisions and is not all-inclusive unless you chose the unlimited option.

PAYMENT INFO & POLICIES
PAYMENT SCHEDULE & INFO
Tuition is payable either in full or in two equal installments.
For camps, the first installment or full payment is due at registration (which will be charged automatically to your credit card on file with the amount dependent on whether you chose “pay in full” or “2 installments”), and the second installment will be due by the first day of the camp.
For classes, the first installment or full payment is due by the first day of the summer session, June 24th, 2024, and the second installment is due by July 15th, 2024. For session classes, you will receive an email from us when your fees have been posted to your account, and then it is your responsibility to make your payment online via our customer Portal. Though a credit card is given, payment is not made at the time of registration.
LATE FEE
A $20 Late Fee will be assessed for payments not made by the due dates. Students with delinquent accounts will not be admitted to class or be eligible to register for additional programs until their account is current.
REFUND POLICY
Tuition and Registration Fees paid are non-refundable and non-transferable to another student or program. For dancers who withdraw with less than 1 week notice prior to the start of a camp, the 1st installment amount (half of the total due) is non-refundable. Students are eligible for a pro-rated tuition refund only if they withdraw from classes due to severe illness or injury, verified by a doctor’s certificate.
There are no credits or refunds given for missed camp/intensive days.
If in-studio classes need to switch to virtual classes, for any reason, TUITION WILL NOT BE REFUNDED.
COLLEGE DISCOUNT
Full-time college students receive a 20% discount on class tuition. Proof of full-time enrollment must be given. This discount does not apply to Registration Fees or Drop-In Classes, although full-time college students also receive a discount on Drop-In Classes.
LATE REGISTRATIONS
Late registrations for session classes are accepted if there is space in the class, and tuition will be prorated.
MAKE UP CLASSES
We do not offer make-up classes for summer camps. Dancers who are enrolled in session classes may make up 2 classes per enrolled class (in another level-appropriate class) in the summer session, but make-up classes cannot be carried into the 2024-25 school year.
