The Winter months are upon us and that brings the possibility of severe weather and cancelled classes.  We do NOT automatically cancel classes when Columbia Public Schools does.  We try to make our decisions about cancellations by 1:00pm.  We will notify local TV and radio stations when cancellations occur.  We will also send out EMAIL to everyone when classes are cancelled.  Make sure we have your email on file so that you don’t miss any important information.  To receive text message alerts regarding cancellations and closings, text CPACDANCE to 84483 for updates.

Students who acquire more than 3 absences (per class) from January 26th through May 7th may not be allowed to participate in the Spring Performances.

Our NEW addition is finally complete!  Studios 1-4 are located in the West Wing and Studios 5-8 are located in the East Wing (new addition).  Monitors will be available in the new East Wing lobby for class viewing.

We no longer occupy the Annex building.  As such, please park in the new large lot on the South side of the building, park by the semi-circle drive on the North side of the building or you may park in the spaces on the West side of the building.  Do NOT park in any space that is adjacent to the former Annex location as those are no longer for our use.

Our dancewear boutique has been consolidated and is located in the East Wing (new addition).  All apparel and shoes for all levels and classes are available at that location only.  Please visit the Curriculum page for further information regarding class attire.

CPAC will be open on Wednesday August 20th and Thursday August 21st from 3:30-6:00pm for those needing to purchase dancewear and/or shoes.  We strongly encourage you to purchase these items prior to the first week of class to minimize congestion, etc.  You are welcome to pay any tuition balances at this time as well.

Please note that ALL dancewear and shoes are located in our new boutique in the East Wing of the Main Building (new addition).  Please park in the large South lot and enter through the doors with the brick columns.
