Placement and Audition Policy:

In order to maintain the mission and integrity of Delta Ballet Academy, all incoming and prospective students ages 3 to 6 must attend an audition for acceptance into the academy.

Prospective students over the age of 6 or with prior dance experience are not required to audition, however they must attend a placement class to be accepted to the academy.

Current students will be evaluated prior to each Fall Schedule for placement into the appropriate level. Placement is up to the discretion of the director and is non-negotiable. Please note a dancer does not necessarily move up a level each year, most likely dancers will remain in each level for two to three years.
