Frequently Asked Questions

What types of dance classes are offered?

DeBaugh Dance Company studio will be a foundation for all-inclusive dance instruction teaching all forms of dance: ballet, tap, hip hop, modern, and contemporary.

How do I pay for my classes?

Tuition/Fees are all to be processed through your Parent Portal:

  • A $25 non-refundable registration fee will be assessed upon registration.
  • Tuition can be paid in full or could be split into monthly payments.  
  • Monthly payments will be processed between the 15th and 20th of each month.  
  • Late Enrollment: Students will receive a prorated enrollment fee IF registering more than 3 weeks after the session begins.
  • No prorate or refund for missed classes.
  • Classes are subject to change due to enrollment and instructor availability.

Registering for classes creates a contract with DeBaugh Dance Company and by signing the registration form, parents/adult students acknowledge responsibility for all tuition payments for the enrolled student.
