End of Semester Account Balances and Late Fees
While we understand that the holiday season can be a tight time financially, we must have all accounts paid in full before Christmas break. Due to a high number of past due accounts in recent years, our standard late fee policy is different for December. The $15 late fee will still be charged to accounts after December 10th for unpaid tuition. However, an additional $15 late fee will be added December 17th to accounts that still have outstanding balances.
Please be sure your account balance is brought up-to-date by December 10th to avoid these late fees! If you need to set up a payment plan, please contact Kristen, who will be happy to work with you.Thank you for your understanding!

Benefit Bake Sale and
Canned Food Drive
The week of December 5 - 8 we will be having a studio-wide bake sale! In the past, we have donated the bake sale money to different organizations in Tulsa and Claremore, and this year we are excited to serve our own community again! We are raising money to pay off lunch accounts for students in need within the local school systems. We hope we are able to not only pay off several lunch accounts, but also leave them with a balance to use as the school year goes on. However, we will not be able to reach our goal without your help! We are setting up two drop-off days (Monday, December 5, and Wednesday, December 7) for people to drop off individually wrapped baked goods. If you would be willing to donate some baked goods, please visit the front desk to sign up! Miss Ashlyn will also have a table set up for her small shop, Sage + Clover set up the week of the bake sale, and a portion of all sales will be donated to the lunch accounts, as well. Be sure to bring some money to class this week; it’s a great opportunity to grab some goodies and Christmas gifts while supporting a great cause!
This year, we will also be doing a canned food drive as well to donate to the Claremore First United Methodist Church food pantry! We are now accepting non-perishable food donations until Christmas break. We are hoping to make some families’ holidays special this year!
Thank you in advance for helping us give back to our community!

Teacher Stockings
December 5 - 15
We will have stockings hanging in the lobby for each of the teachers soon! We like to provide a way for the students to "gift" their teacher a sweet note or picture for Christmas! Students are welcome to drop treats or notes into their teacher's stocking to let them know how much they appreciate them this holiday season. Markers and paper will be available at the studio. The stockings will be in the lobby until the teacher's last night of class before Christmas break.

Crazy Christmas Dress Up
December 12 - 15
Students can wear their craziest Christmas or winter themed attire to class. Even your teachers will be dressing up with you! (Please make sure you can still dance in your outfit!) We will also be having an end of class party! Your child is invited to bring snacks to share with the class (this is NOT required). We have sent a note home for each class stating how many students are in your class and if there are any food allergies.

Mini-Mester
We are gearing up for our ever popular 6-week Mini-Mester starting January 2023. This is a great way to add an extra night of class to help shake off those mid-winter doldrums or to introduce dance to a sibling or friend! If you or someone you know is interested in joining us for Mini-Mester, please fill out this quick survey here

Inclement weather policy
As stated in our policies, if Claremore Public Schools are closed due to weather conditions, we are closed as well. However, in the event that school is in session and the weather conditions become questionable, we will text or call parents if their child's classes are cancelled. We will offer only one day of make-up classes (regardless of how many we miss due to weather) in the Spring. K & Co. reserves the right to combine classes during the makeup day scheduled.
