Each member family is encouraged to serve for 2 hours at various tasks ranging from rehearsal set up and break down, check in, and photography.  Each family contributes snack, fruit, drink for 15 kids.  Service hour opportunity sign-ups will be available prior to the start of rehearsals. Full Season members of SYS can apply their service hours to the coming season.

All requests for refunds must be submitted to the office for review. After the registration deadlines, no refunds will be granted. Difficult or hardship cases will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

 

If you have chosen a tuition payment plan, your obligation remains the same as that above.Cancelling your payment plan subscription, or non-payment of any kind, does not relieve you of the tuition obligation above. SYS reserves the right to collect any unpaid tuition, including, but not limited to collections, if necessary.
