What to expect.

Grading classes are designed to assist coaches in placing students into a team with students with similar abilities. This ensures all students will have maximum growth in confidence and skills over the year. Separating students by ability also ensures Acacia will have the most competitive sub-junior teams possible for State Championships in August.

Grading classes are designed to be fun and low-pressure. In the first class students will be taught mini-routines in exercises, rods and aesthetic and in the second class they will review these routines with coaches and will be asked to perform them in small groups.

We encourage students to practice the routines in the week leading up to the grading class and videos will be provided to assist them. If your child is struggling with work taught, please reach out to us for assistance.

After the second class, the grading panel will collectively rank the students based on their performance and participation in both classes. Once ranked, our Principle Coach (Renee) will review the stage performance of the top 15 students in our 2023 competition videos and place them in a team according to their rank and stage performance. The grading decision is final. 

Students will be notified of their team via email.
