Q

What do I do if my child wants to be in the same class as one of his best friends?

A

Please indicate in comment section of the application and we will do our best to try and accommodate the request, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do this.

Q

Why does my child have to take two classes?

A

We find it best that when are students stay for the four hours that their experience is far greater than just coming for one class.

Where can my child go after school?

A

Our cafeteria and library are open until about 1:30, but if your child needs to stay later, we have many wonderful afternoon camps.
