There must be a minimum of six students enrolled in order for a program to run. The maximum number of students in a club varies; once a club reaches maximum capacity, registration will close.
The Yearbook Club and the 6th or 7th and 8th Grade musicals are free to join. There are no costs associated with club participation. However, you must register to join.
If you participate in a full-year club such as Model UN, you will be asked to register again for the spring semester.
Families utilizing their apportioned financial aid will not initially see the program cost reflect the financial aid contribution upon enrollment. Following enrollment and the $25.00 deposit, the School will apply financial aid to the account. After financial aid is applied, the remaining balance will be due at 50% by Monday 9/15 with total balance paid by Wednesday 10/15.
We understand that circumstances may change, and sometimes adjustments are needed. If you request a refund after your child's first session, the School will provide a 100% refund, deducting only the cost of that initial session less the $25.00 deposit. Following the second session, families are eligible for a 50% refund. However, please note that refunds are not available after the third session.
Should you need to request a refund, please reach out to Sheyla Ortiz Peña. There are no refunds for snow days or other emergency closures.
