Enrolling Mid-Session

If you decide to enroll your child in a class already in session, send us an email and we will forward it to our Director of Education to determine if there is availability in the class and it is appropriate for your child’s level. She will contact you directly and review the class curriculum with you before admitting the child to the class. Your tuition payment will be the number of remaining classes ($28 per class)

Refund Policy

If, after class 1, you find your class is not the best fit for your child, and we are unable to place your child in a more suitable class, you will receive a 100% refund.

If you decide to withdraw your child after classes 2 – 9, your refund is the remaining tuition ($29 per class) – $45.00 cancellation fee.
