Fall Semester Timeline 

Our 10-week semester will begin on Monday, September 8th and end on Thursday, November 20th. There will be no classes held during Rosh Hashanah (Tuesday, Sep 23), PCSD Fall Break (Sep 29-Oct 3) or PCSD Thanksgiving Break (Nov 24-28).
 

*Participation Policy: (Fall and Spring Classes) 

Due to the 10-week nature of our Fall and Spring classes, only 2 absences will be allowed to guarantee participation in the final recording or performance. These 2 absences cannot be within the final 2 weeks of classes. This guarantees that students have adequate time to prepare for their performance by attending regularly.  Students will always be allowed and encouraged to participate during regular class time, regardless of the number of absences they have. For any unplanned conflicts/emergencies that arise, please email/text/call the YouTheatre Administration ASAP. Thank you for helping your child be successful in our tuition-free program!
