Read the Audition Packet and Fill Out the Application Form
Parents and dancers should review the Informational Packet together and discuss which placement option may be best for each dancer.
Fill out the Application form. The email you use is how we will contact you throughout the audition process. GUSD Student emails will not be able to successfully communicate with us. A separate Gmail account should be used.
Once submitted, the coaching staff will receive your information and responses. You will receive an automated confirmation message from Google that your information was received. Only submit the form once.
If we do not receive your form, you will not receive an audition number on Wednesday!
