November Monthly Memo
Happy November! We’re in the 6 week countdown to Winter Showcases. The studio is buzzing with holiday music and the excitement of an upcoming performance.
Our mission at SDA is Empowering Students and Community Through Dance and this month our focus is on Empowering Through Positive Affirmations! You have the power to frame your mindset 💜
Watch for our Positive Affirmations worksheet to give yourself a little boost. Have your dancer complete the worksheet and bring it to the office for a chance to pick a prize out of our treasure box!
Toys for Tots Drive at SDA
SDA is an official drop off location for Toys for Tots. Toys for Tots is a non-profit organization created by the US Marine Corp, with the mission to collect new unwrapped toys and distribute those toys to less fortunate children at Christmas. We will be accepting donations of new unwrapped toys through December 14th. The toys will be picked up on December 15th and distributed to local children.
Inclement Weather Policy & Closures:
It's that time of year to remind everyone of our inclement weather policy:
SDA follows the Sherwood School District (in Washington County) weather related closures. If SSD is closed due to weather, so are we. If SSD has a late start due to weather, studio classes starting before 12pm will be cancelled.
Closures could also happen because of other unforeseen events, such as wildfires and power outages that make holding class at the studio impossible or unsafe.
You will be contacted by email or text message if class is cancelled.
Save the Date: Pajama Week!
November 13th-18th is Pajama Week! This is my personal favorite 😁
Dancers get to wear their comfy cozy pajamas to dance class!!! Just make sure your PJs are still dance appropriate (a long nightgown will make an Acro class difficult)
Studio Closed for Thanksgiving - November 22nd-25th
We are closed Wednesday the 22nd through Saturday the 25th (open for classes Monday and Tuesday!). We hope you enjoy the break with your loved ones, eat amazing food, and stay toasty warm!
All my best,
Liana MacFarlane
Owner/Director
P.S. Be sure to you’re up to date on all the Winter Showcase details and schedule.
