Enrollment

Registration for fall classes is August 12th & 13th from 3:00-6:00 pm at the Walton Way studio only. Dancewear will be available for sale at that time. There will be an Open House at the Walton Way studio on August 20th from 3:00-5:00 pm for all new students to meet their teachers and view the studio. Classes begin the week of August 24th. A registration fee of one month's tuition must accompany the registration form.

The tuition is due on the first day of each month. Parents of students (or adult students) will be required to sign a tuition payment agreement. Checks should be made payable to the Augusta Ballet School. Class payment cards are available for jazz & tap students who pay by the class. Statements are sent only for overdue accounts after the 5th of the month and no student will be admitted to class if tuition is not paid. An automatic late fee of $5 will be charged when tuition is not received by the 5th. There will be a $15 charge for all returned checks.

TO ALL STUDENTS: Monthly tuition is based on an average number of classes per month. We do not charge extra tuition for the months where there are extra classes in the month. You may not pro-rate the tuition for any month. (Doing so will result in your child not being admitted to his/her class.)

The schedule of classes is subject to change. The Augusta Ballet School follows the Richmond County School holiday schedule only, not Staff Development days. We will close with the Richmond County Schools due to weather conditions. During Nutcracker week (November 23rd-27th) the School will be closed with the possible exception of the Movers & Groovers session classes. Classes will resume on Monday, November 30th. Check the School Calendar for any other information. If you have questions about class placement, please call the office at 733-5511. Please leave a message and someone will return your call.

We strongly recommend and encourage all of our students to come to the performances of the Augusta Ballet and any other professional dance event in the area. Important and invaluable aspects of the student's dance experience are in having performing artists on faculty and in being surrounded by the quality of a professional dance company. We feel, therefore, that the merits and advantages of having a ballet company in residence far outweigh any inconvenience that it might cause. All Augusta Ballet performances take place at the Imperial Theatre (745 Broad St). Tickets may be purchased beginning October 1st by calling the Imperial Theatre at 706.722.8341 or online at imperialtheatre.com.
