Dance Materials

Hello!


On Thursday, August 20, Kat Barlow from the Dance and More Store in Johnson will come to our classes to fit students for dance apparel and shoes. Students will have a blank order form that Kat will fill out with the appropriate sizes; sizes for dance apparel vary greatly from regular clothing and shoes. Dance material for women consists of a black leotard, tan tights, and ballet shoes; optional items include a ballet skirt or jazz shorts. For men, dance material includes a white shirt, black shorts or pants, and black jazz shoes.

Students will take these forms home to parents and need to return the signed forms on Friday, August 21. If students do not return the order form, they will be responsible for obtaining their dance wear on their own time. The Dance and More Store offers Rogers Public Schools a great discount; however, students may purchase their materials from other vendors. At the bottom of the order form, you will find an area for parents to sign and mark if they would like to be considered for a scholarship. These partial and full scholarships will be reserved for students with a great need for monetary assistance. Priority will be given to students on free and reduced lunch.


Payment is not due until the materials come in; students will not receive their materials until they have paid. Students can bring cash or check (made payable to Dance and More Store) to Ms. Davis, or they can call the Dance and More Store to pay by credit card or PayPal. Any unpaid fees will be put on the student’s account to pay before they graduate.


Materials will be delivered to Rogers High School or Heritage High School and Ms. Davis will pass out the materials.


We will plan to start dressing out in our materials on Tuesday, September 8 or whenever the materials arrive!


Here is the blank order form (RHS will receive on Thursday // HHS received in class on Wednesday): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b11SdG6EcnVdiq_93jX4AQfdxmelY-hq3xW50Xlix6o/edit?usp=sharing 

Thank you! Please don’t hesitate to email me with any questions! edavis@rps.k12.ar.us

¡Hola!

El jueves, 20 de agosto, Kat Barlow (propietaria de The Dance and More Store en Johnson) vendrá a nuestras clases para que los estudiantes pueden probar la ropa y los zapatos de la danza. Los estudiantes tendrán un formulario de pedido en blanco que Kat llenará con los tamaños apropiados; tamaños para la ropa de danza varían mucho de ropa regular y zapatos. Material de danza para las mujeres consiste en un leotardo negro, medias de color canela, y los zapatos de ballet; elementos opcionales incluyen una falda de ballet o jazz pantalones cortos. Para los hombres, el material de la danza incluye una camisa blanca, pantalón negro o pantalones y zapatos negros de jazz.

Los estudiantes toman estas formas a los padres y la necesidad de devolver los formularios firmados el viernes, 21 de agosto. Si los estudiantes no devuelven el formulario de pedido, que serán responsables de la obtención de su ropa de baile en su propio tiempo. The Dance and More Store ofrece las escuelas públicas de Rogers un gran descuento; sin embargo, los estudiantes pueden comprar sus materiales de otros proveedores. En la parte inferior del formulario de pedido, usted encontrará un área para que los padres firmen y marcan si les gustaría ser considerado para una beca. Estas becas parciales y totales se reservarán para los estudiantes con una gran necesidad de ayuda monetaria. Se dará prioridad a los estudiantes en el almuerzo gratis oa precio reducido.

El pago no es debido hasta que los materiales llegan; los estudiantes no recibirán sus materiales hasta que hayan pagado. Los estudiantes pueden llevar dinero en efectivo o cheque (a nombre de Dance and More Store) a la señorita Davis, o pueden llamar a The Dance and More Store para pagar con tarjeta de crédito o PayPal. Cualquier cuota sin pagar serán puestos en la cuenta del estudiante a pagar antes de graduarse.

Los materiales se entregan a Rogers High School o Heritage High School en 2-3 semanas, y la señorita Davis pasarán los materiales.

¡Vamos a planear para empezar a vestirse en nuestros materiales el martes, 8 de septiembre, o cuando los materiales llegan!

Aquí está el formulario de pedido en blanco (RHS recibirá el jueves // HHS recibió en la clase del miércoles): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b11SdG6EcnVdiq_93jX4AQfdxmelY-hq3xW50Xlix6o/edit?usp=sharing 

¡Gracias! Por favor, no dude en enviarme un correo electrónico con cualquier pregunta! edavis@rps.k12.ar.us
