PPAC September Newsletter 2026
PPAC will celebrate its 37th anniversary on September 18th. I am so happy to have your family join us for this dance year! Listed below are a few dates for your calendar. PPAC follows Giles County School System’s Calendar for breaks (we do not close for in-service and other days that schools are closed). PPAC does not follow Giles County School System for weather closures. In the event of inclement weather, a text will be sent out and information will be posted in the private FB groups (be sure to join your group if you haven’t already done so).
September 7th – PPAC will be closed for Labor Day
October 5th-9th – PPAC will be closed for Fall Break

June 4th and June 5th – PPAC’s Annual Dance Recital
During school breaks, students are asked to make up their classes at their convenience before or after the closure. A list of classes can be found on PPAC’s website. Teachers will also send out schedules.
As a reminder to parents, you must come to the door or inside of the studio at the end of classes to pick up your dancers. The only students that are allowed to leave without a parent are those that drive. Please send water and pony tail holders to class with your dancer.
Costumes for PPAC’s Spring Recital will be ordered the first week of December. All costumes must be paid for in full before ordered. Families with multiple dancers may pay in full by January. PPAC will measure dancers and order costumes. A picture of the costume and pricing will be available on each parent’ s portal after Fall Break. Parents are welcome to make monthly payments at any time before December 1st for costumes. When paying, please note that it is for recital costumes.
All payment information, newsletters, costumes and class choreography can be found on your DSP Portal. There is an app available for your phone. Newsletters are also posted on the private FB pages.
Soccer shorts and t-shirts are not appropriate dance attire (just like leotards are not appropriate for soccer or basketball). Please make sure your dancer wears the correct dancewear and shoes to classes.
