Anti-Bullying Policy

In the Key of Dance is committed to providing a safe and supportive community that fosters a lifelong love for the arts. In order to guarantee that all of our dancers are able to best pursue their passion or recreational fun, In there Key of Dance will NOT tolerate bullying in any form: Physical, Emotional, Social, Verbal, or written (electronically and in person). As such, we have implemented a ZERO TOLERANCE BULLYING POLICY applicable to our students, dance families, staff, and employees. This behavior is described as bullying if it physically or emotionally harms another dancer, targets a dancer for any actual or perceived characteristic, or creates a hostile environment in the dance studio.  

We understand that the under reporting of bullying is the biggest hinderance to stopping further harassment. We have developed a form to fill out in case of bullying and the information should be sent directly to the studio. A course of action will then be decided.

Since our goal is to empower people and embrace individuality, one documented bullying event will have repercussions-which could include immediate termination of enrollment for bullying.

Please note as per the above policy, In the Key of Dance recognized that bullying not only occur between students. Parents or guardians who harass or speak ill of a student, another parent, or any In the Key of Dance staff member, will have repercussions, which could include suspension or termination or termination of the student and possible legal action for the adult, especially if such incident results in a physical altercation. There will be no refunds for such actions!!

At In the Key of Dance, respect and compassion are two of our core values. All dancers have the right to learn and develop their art in a positive, respectful environment.
