REFUND POLICIES, WITHDRAWALS, LATE FEES, CANCELLATIONS
​
-
The $50 application fee is NON-REFUNDABLE. If your camp choices are full, you are paying to join the waitlist.
-
If payment in not received within 5 days of due date, you forfeit your child’s spot in the program.
-
You may withdraw your student at any time, but you will not be refunded for payments already submitted. For example, if you pay in May for June camps, but then withdraw on May 30, you will not receive a refund. Tuition payments have limited transferability. You may transfer your payment to another week in the Summer with the following limitations. 1) You must notify us at least 7 days prior to week that particular summer camp begins, 2) Transfer will be based on space availability, 3) Pay $25 change fee. For example, if you paid for the week of June 5, but want to change to June 12. You will need to notify us by May 29 and pay an additional $25.
-
We do not want children switching back and forth between half day and full day camps. This disrupts the continuity with children and teachers. There are a few exceptions that you can discuss with the director. Reasoning may include: You are on the waitlist for full day camp and are attending half day until a full day camp slot opens. In this scenario, once a full day slot opens, you would spend the rest of the summer in full day camps.
-
You must keep your child home if they are showing signs of illness. We do not refund for days missed due to illness.
-
There are no "make-up" classes if your child is absent for any reason.
