Makeup Classes:
Policy and Eligibility:
Enrollment: Only currently enrolled students may take makeup classes. If a student is not enrolled in monthly classes, they are ineligible to schedule makeups, even if they have existing credits.
Attendance: Do not submit absences via the Parent Portal; this feature has been removed. Teachers will take roll in class, and makeup credits will be automatically applied to the student’s account for eligible classes.
Expiration: Makeup credits must be used within 30 days of the missed class. After one month, the credit will expire.
Restrictions:
- Makeup credits are linked to individual students and cannot be shared among siblings.
- Makeups cannot be used in place of tuition.
- If a class is dropped and a refund or tuition credit is issued, any makeup credits associated with that month’s absences will be removed.
- Families with unpaid fees are not eligible for makeups.
Scheduling a Makeup:
Class Selection: Makeups must be taken in a different class than the one missed. Students may attend any age-appropriate class with openings and no waitlist.
How to Schedule:
Parent Portal: Schedule directly through your student’s account.
In-Person: Visit the office to schedule no later than 15 minutes before the class begins.
Discrepancies: If a credit does not appear on your account after an absence, email info@ocpaadance.com to have it corrected.
