Oct. 14th:
Dear Spark families,
We are reaching out to you tonight to make you aware of a policy change at Spark. We are at capacity (read-bursting at the seams;) on Tuesdays. We really need your support in keeping our lobby cleared. This will be especially important this week as we are costuming for our shows and will be our policy from here on out. There are many times that we need to use the lobby for classes to take snack breaks while other rooms are occupied or where small groups will come out to block scenes. During dismissal on Tuesdays there are so many bodies that we really need to keep things as clear as possible for safety reasons. In order to take better care of our students and to ensure their safety, we are asking that parents and siblings of students not wait in the lobby. Please plan to drop off and pick up your children. There are several parks, restaurants, and places to shop nearby. We appreciate your support and cooperation on this matter.
Thank you! Spark Staff
