It's that time of year again - Christmas celebrations, special activities, holiday travels and the beginning of a new year. It's also the time many families decide to make changes to their schedules. With this in mind, we would like to make parents aware of the EE class change policies so that you can plan accordingly.
CLASS CHANGE PROCEDURES
- CLASS CHANGES MADE DURING THE MONTH OF DECEMBER must be made IN PERSON with the Office Manager. ONLINE DROPS will not be possible beginning DECEMBER 1st.
- Please go to the EE WEBSITE to make a "PAYMENT & PAPERWORK" APPOINTMENT if you need to make changes to your child's schedule. Here is the link: http://www.extraed.net/office_appointments
- PLEASE DO NOT JUST "DROP BY" THE OFFICE HOPING TO "CATCH SOMEONE". PLEASE MAKE AN APPOINTMENT!!!
- There is a $10 CLASS CHANGE FEE for all DROPS and CLASS CHANGES unless initiated by EE.
- JANUARY TUITION AND SPRING SUPPLY FEES WILL BE DUE for all classes in which your child is enrolled as of DECEMBER 15th. All Spring Semester DROPS and CHANGES to your child's schedule must be received in our office PRIOR to DECEMBER 15th if you wish to avoid paying Spring Semester Supply Fees and January Tuition.
- For class drops processed during DECEMBER 1st-14th, parents will have the option to enroll their child in a replacement class and transfer the pre-paid May tuition to the new class. This is the only time of year when pre-paid May tuition may be transferred to another class.
- If you simply drop a class and do not replace it with another class, your pre-paid May tuition is not refundable.
- Parents are expected to DISCUSS any concerns they have about a class or the curriculum with the TEACHER prior to dropping a class. If your concerns cannot be resolved with the teacher, you are asked to bring your concerns to the Director before dropping a class.
- If you have concerns or issues with another student in the class, you are expected to discuss your concerns with the teacher AND with the Director prior to dropping the class.
Several classes are currently in danger of being canceled for the spring semester. A few class changes are due to the teacher's personal schedule. In most cases, however, drops during the fall semester have left the class with such a small enrollment that we cannot afford to offer the class.
Classes that have an enrollment of 4 or fewer students are likely to be canceled for the spring semester. In certain cases we may be able to offer a class even with low enrollment. In most cases, however, we cannot afford to offer a class with enrollment below 5 students. Please be on the look-out for a message regarding class cancellation if your child's class has 4 or fewer students.
- If a class is cancelled due to low enrollment or teacher availability issues, you will have the option to enroll in another class and transfer your pre-paid May tuition to the new class OR drop the class altogether.
- If you choose not to enroll in another class your pre-paid May tuition payment will be applied to your account balance or a refund will be issued if your account is paid in full.
SPRING SUPPLY FEES
- Please be aware that Spring Supply Fees will be billed to your account in December.
- All classes will have some type of Spring Supply Fee. In some cases, it may only be $5. In other cases, it may be closer to amount of the fall Supply Fee. Please refer to the official class description on the ClassJuggler website for specific class fees.
