As parents and students you represent us at each competition so again remember to be courteous, polite and respectful of others; speak softly while in the audience; enter or exit the auditorium only between numbers and clap for everyone! Thank the judge with a smile for your award and be respectful! We have worked very hard these past 74 years establishing a reputation of respect, good sportsmanship and positive attitudes. Let’s continue this tradition of excellence.

Above all, have fun and know that we are proud of you no matter what. Focus on the journey that brought you to that moment on stage. It is on that journey that you learn your most valuable lessons and receive your greatest rewards.

Each year we offer several summer classes as well as various summer camps. There will be sign up information posted at the recital. All students will be divided according to age and level. The last summer camp we hold a sleep over on the last night which is very popular with all our students. We invite parents to come the last morning to see what we’ve been working on during the week of camp. More detailed information will be available and posted in advance regarding exact dates and times.

We recognize that this is truly the age of technology and that many people have access to the internet. We now have a website which will include all of the information from our newsletters , upcoming recital information, competition info, dress codes etc.. We have also included a “Parents Corner” where you will find answers to all those questions you have, but don’t have the time to ask! You will also be able to access this guidebook online.

This website will be maintained by Mark & Debbie Hawkes and will be kept up to date on a monthly basis. If you have any suggestions about information that you would like to see posted there please let one of us know.

The website is: www.hspadance.com
