"The Complete Etiquette Experience from
..............Dining to Dancing"................

We are pleased to announce our regular
 
Junior Cotillion
 
as well as our two new fundraising programs
for San Diego and Orange County schools:

After-School Junior Cotillion 
and
Dining & Table Manners Tutorial



Our After-School Cotillion not only excels in traditional cotillion instruction of dancing and etiquette, but is especially known for its excellence in hands-on dining lessons. This new after-school program offers convenience to parents and students, while allowing schools to make up to a thousand dollars that can be used for various fund-raising causes and special events.

California Junior Cotillion has offered etiquette classes within San Diego and Orange County for almost a decade, and has graduated hundreds of students through the program. By working with schools at their location, the program will be more accessible to students as well as affordable for parents. Classes are geared toward all intermediate grade level students and the curriculum can be customized to address certain problems the school (or grade level) may be having. Our program costs less than any other etiquette / cotillion program which is a real benefit for parents since everyone is experiencing an increase in the cost of living.

Our Dining & Table Manners Tutorial is another fundraiser we offer. This is a two hour, hands-on dining lesson, conveniently offered on a weekend, and is open to the whole school including parents, teachers and students. This is a longer, more comprehensive lesson in dining and is designed for everyone! (The After-School Etiquette Program has a shorter version included in its classes.) This event is very popular and can generate up to several hundred dollars in funds for the school.

Please contact us if you would like to have one of our fundraising programs started at your school:

T
his etiquette and social skills program teaches children all the important skills for everyday life and beyond. They will learn to shake hands, make correct introductions, write thank you letters, respond to RSVP's, be a host, be a guest, dress for the occasion, set the table, dine with manners, and learn what it means to have nice social skills.

Parents say their children gain a tremendous amount of self-esteem and confidence after attending one of our programs. We hear stories where their child made introductions on their own with confidence, or they knew what was "going on" at the dinner table and were able to help explain it to everyone else, or how they went up to their new teacher at the beginning of the school year and shook their hand. Our world is fast paced and busy, sometimes making it hard for parents to find the time to teach their children etiquette; most of the time they are just trying to make it through the day. Unfortunately, TV and movies don't show enough examples of proper behavior, so simple lessons like these help children to know what correct behavior is and that it is expected of them. These lessons, along with reinforcements from home and school, will help guide children to becoming well behaved young adults! We know, we have done it many times.
