PC & FRC Level III Spring Conference Sign-Up!

Afternoon Seattle & Bellevue Level III Families,

Individual student/parent conferencing for our Level III students are coming up in February.

This year we are introducing a new conference format! Conferences will replace Level III classes on your students respective conference date, and will take place over Zoom in 15 minute time blocks. This means that the day your students conferences are scheduled, their regular classes will be cancelled that day.

Seattle:

IIIA conferences will take place on Monday, February 23rd from 4:00pm-6:00pm

IIIB conferences will take place on Thursday, February 26th from 4:00pm-6:00pm and a 2nd group from 4:00pm-6:15pm

Bellevue:

IIIA conferences will take place on Wednesday, February 25th from 4:00pm-6:15pm and a 2nd group from 4:00pm-6:30pm

IIIB conferences will take place on Thursday, March 5th from 4:30pm-6:45pm and a 2nd group from 4:30pm-7:00pm

IIID conferences will take place on Wednesday, March 4th from 4:00pm-6:15pm

As always, the student conferences will include discussions about your progress and mastering technique and artistry. Prior to conferences, your teachers work collectively to communicate their individual observations and corrections for each student. Conferences provide a platform to discuss not only what you are working on in class in the way of technique, but also your plans for the future and how we can help guide you successfully into the next chapter in your life. Parents and students please come prepared with questions and let us know how we can help make this a successful year for you.   

Below click on your students correct school location and level and you will find the sign-up sheet for conferences:

*If you are unsure which letter class your Level III student is please email the school and we can look it up for you!

Phelps Center Safety Advisory: Shelter Activation 1/22-1/28

Hello PNBS Families,

We are reaching out to let you know that with the cold weather we are experiencing in Seattle it is highly likely that the warming shelter within Exhibition Hall (the space directly beneath the Phelps Center) will be activated starting tomorrow night, Thursday the 22nd, through the morning of Wednesday January 28th.

The Salvation Army will operate the building, which is being opened as an emergency severe weather shelter at the request of the King County Regional Homelessness Authority (KCRHA) in partnership with the City of Seattle.

From dusk onwards Salvation Army staff will be present to ensure the Phelps Center and all of our students are undisturbed. We are coordinating with our own security team and Seattle Center Security to ensure we are able to operate with no interruptions.

That being said, we ask that students and families exercise extra vigilance during this time, particularly in the early mornings and evenings. Students being picked up must remain in the building until they see their parent arrive. Students who drive themselves to class should make sure they are always with a buddy as they leave the campus at night.

We strongly recommend saving the Seattle Center Emergency Services Unit (ESU) phone number to call in case you run into any issues, if you see something suspicious while on the grounds or in Seattle Center facilities, please report it immediately to ESU at 206-684-7272 or Call 911.

Please also let PNBS staff know immediately if you see or experience something unsafe on the way in and out of the Phelps Center. Email documentation is also helpful in our communication with Seattle Center. PNB Front Desk: 206-441-9411; PNB School Office: 206-441-2435

Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you,

Pacific Northwest Ballet School

Good Morning Level VI, VIII, and Adv. C students!

As you are aware there is a showing for New Voices I tonight in Studio C from 6:30pm-7:30pm. Ms. Stone has invited Levels VI, VIII, and Adv. C classes to watch, however this does not mean that classes for these levels are canceled.

All Level VI, VIII, and Adv. C classes will still be happening as scheduled. It is up to the teacher’s if they will be bringing their students to view the showing during class time.

Best,

PNB School Staff
