Ms. Cam's Studio
General Information

Studio Mission Statement

 Our Program was founded in 1998 by Director Cameron Hill. The purpose of our program is to provide students of all ages the opportunity to experience quality training within a non-competitive environment that is challenging, rewarding, inspiring and embracing an element of fun.

  Our studio provides a loving and warm atmosphere in which our students are nurtured and encouraged to grow as dancers, athletes and well-rounded people.  To that end, our staff expresses a genuine interest in our students and demonstrates respect and courtesies toward them.  Hand in hand, our staff expects good and respectful behavior from all who come to our program.

STUDIO POLICIES:

  1. Parents or guardians of students are required to walk their children INTO the studio and pick them up IN the studio once a class is over. STUDENTS ARE NEVER TO ENTER OR EXIT THE BUILDING WITHOUT A PARENT. NO exceptions, NO "dropping off" students at the door. If you are not prepared to follow this rule, then this studio is not for you. Safety for our students is always our primary concern.
  2. Parents are responsible for reading all newsletters and notices posted in the studios. We work diligently to keep parents informed so that students may have the optimum studio experience. We expect cooperation from the parents in this crucial area.
  3. Parents are responsible for payment of classes and notification should their child stop classes. If the director is not notified, payment will still be expected as that place in class has been held for that student.
  4. While in the building, parents are responsible for the behavior of all children with them. Children must be accompanied by and adult AT ALL TIMES! Children and parents must be respectful of the building, the instructors and the class situation by remaining quiet and seated in the waiting areas.
  5. NO GUM, FOOD OR DRINK (except water) IN THE STUDIOS!

 

   Our year begins the week after Labor Day and concludes with our Spring Recital. We are able to enroll new students throughout the year if space is available. Our yearly schedule follows that of the Cumberland County School holiday schedule only--when the schools have scheduled days off,
 then we do not have classes. We do not necessarily follow the school inclement weather schedule.

  
If classes must be canceled due to bad weather, students may attend their  regular scheduled make up class.  No credits will be issued for canceled classes.

   We also offer a Summer Session.


~My staff and I consider it a privilege to work with your children and we appreciate the opportunity. I personally remain grateful to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for our studio and give Him credit and glory for all good which comes through and from our program.
                     ~  Cameron Hill ("Ms. Cam")
