We will follow Fulton County Schools regarding inclement weather closings.
Please call the studio at (404) 455-0983 and the answering machine will have a recorded message that will announce studio closings in case of inclement weather. We will also announce closings via our Facebook and Twitter accounts. We will hold classes except under exceptionally dangerous driving conditions. When there is a delayed school opening, all morning classes will be held. Use your own discretion regarding attendance if the driving is difficult from your area.

If North Georgia School of Ballet cancels a class, a make-up date will be announced. If you are unable to attend the scheduled make-up date, students will be responsible for arranging their own make-up classes at a time that is convenient for them. No credit will be given for missed classes; however, students are always welcome to take make-up classes for any missed class.
