Our Policies
Annual Fee
Everyone is charged a $50 Registration Fee each “school year”. Our year begins over the summer. Everyone must pay the Registration Fee regardless of being a returning student or not.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Make-Up Classes
Make-up classes are meant to be used incase of being sick, or some other extenuating circumstances. There is a limit of one (1) make-up class per student per session.
No exceptions on this due to fairness to the other students.
Please Contact the school email at least 24 hours in advance is required in order to arrange for a make-up.
In the event of a school closure, such as due to inclement weather, we will offer a make-up class. Any such classes will be made-up at the end of the session, and parents will be emailed a schedule.
If you know dates that your child HAS to miss class for any reason when you are signing up, please let us know on the enrollment sheet or as soon as possible.
Enrolling and Changing Class Days/Times
Please fill out the enrollment registration form and list the chosen classes with dates and prices as we have them listed on the classes page. We will send you a confirmation email with all the details about payment within 2 business days. If you did not receive a confirmation email, please check your spam folder. There is a high possibility it will be there.
In regards to our office hours, we do not process registrations Saturdays and Sundays. If you register over the weekend, please expect a response the next open weekday.
If you want to change your camp dates or times (but not a refund), please let us know 1-week in advance of the students first day of class. We cannot guarantee a request for specific time or day since our classes are capped at 25 students, but we will do everything we can to accommodate your request.
