Attendance & Level Placement Policy

Absences & Tardiness
All students are expected to come to class regularly and on time.
- If a dancer misses more than 2 classes in a month in their given level (for that genre/style) they will be reevaluated and potentially moved to a lower level.
Dancers will not be allowed to enter the classroom if they are more than TEN minutes late to their class start time.
- If a dancer is tardy for multiple classes in a month, they will be reevaluated and potentially moved to a different class/level.

Level Placement
A dancer’s ability and developmental maturity are carefully considered when being placed into a level. Artistic Faculty also consider grouping dancers together that need to work on the same concepts and steps. Students will undergo regular evaluation so that any adjustment in level can be made. Dance levels have no relation to what school year a student is currently in.
- Level placement is decided by Artistic Directors, not by the parent, students, or teacher of the class.
Civic Dance Center is located at 7840 Brimhall Rd. in Bakersfield, CA. Civic Dance Center houses three state of the art studios. All three of our studios’ wood floors are sprung from their concrete infrastructures by a system of rubber wedges on a wooden frame. Our floors are engineered in this fashion as a safeguard against injuries.
