Although we really do our best to plan our schedule ahead so you can too, the dates and times are subject to change with the wind. Please look for more information as we get closer to the events on our What's New page. For planning purposes, we use the 4-J school system calendar which closely match most of the other districts in the Eugene/Springfield area.
Weather Related Closures: For consistency and safety reasons, BNWA follows the 4J school system for all weather related closures. Free make-up classes will be offered to students that miss a class due to weather related school closure. Note: We will remain closed the entire day. We are aware that sometimes the weather gets better throughout the day, but the roads commonly ice over again in the evenings.
Monthly Classes and Tuition: Tuition is averaged over the academic year based on 4 classes per month. Some months have 5 classes and some classes have 3 classes during a month due to breaks and holidays. BNWA offers free make up classes if we are closed for a break or holiday but do not charge any more money if you class has 5 classes in a particular month.
Make Up Classes: Did you know... Make up classes may also be made up in any style of dance at your dancer's level. For instance, if you dancer had a make up class for Jazz 1, he/she could make up in Ballet 1, Tap 1, Hip Hop 1 or Musical Theatre 1! In order to ensure quality classes, make up classes must be coordinated through the front desk. Make up classes can not be made up in Full Classes. Our make up policy requires all classes are made up within 2 weeks prior to the missed class (grandma is coming into town) or within 2 weeks after the class (sick). The reason for this is so the dancer can keep up with the curriculum. It is always best to make up in the same style of dance but dancers are welcome to explore other styles of dance as well.
