HOW SOON CAN I SECURE MY SEAT AHEAD OF CLASS?
Paying ahead is always an option! This works great for students who want to schedule sessions on the weekend, during academic breaks (fall/summer) or for parents who like to stay ahead of the game. The options for planning ahead are only limited by your availability. We schedule our classes according to your schedule.
DO YOU OFFER PICKUP FOR ENROLLED TEENS/ STUDENTS?
Students who attend schools within reasonable radius to our location (Richland Northeast, Ridge View, Cardinal Newman, and Spring Valley) are eligible for being picked up for sessions.
IS MY DEPOSIT REFUNDABLE?
Your deposit retains your seat with the expectation that you have chosen to show up not for us, but for yourself. We respect how life impacts our students and their families, which is why deposits are transferrable, not refundable. Once you begin the application process, the deposit guarantees your enrollment and your drive time.
