POLICIES

  • Tuition is due on the first day of attendance after the free introductory class.
  • Continuing students must pay for the upcoming month before that month begins.
  • Late payment will result in a $5.00 late fee.
  • Continuous lack of payment will result in cancellation from classes.
  • We do not prorate for missed classes.
  • We do offer make-ups for missed classes. In order to receive a make-up, we need advance notice of the absence. Make-ups must be completed within a month of the day missed, and should be scheduled with the office.
  • KidsArt welcomes all students age 4 and older, with any level of talent. As long as your child is interested in art, and is able to hold a pencil and create basic shapes, he/she will love our classes! We are happy to work with children who struggle with fine motor skills, extremely shy children, those who love to draw but are frustrated with a lack of ability, and those who need basic drawing and coloring skills in order to complete projects for school.
  • We believe in establishing a solid drawing foundation with all students, from age 4 to adults. We have students become familiar with a variety of dry media before moving into painting. Adult students may discuss with teachers the subjects on which you would like to focus.
  • A student may be removed from classes if his/her behavior disrupts the class.
  • Classes may have up to 12 students with 2 teachers. Classes which have 2 or fewer students may be closed.
  • Students work on individual projects and teachers help each student in turn throughout the class.
  • New students may schedule the free introductory class at any time during the month, any time during the year.
  • All schedule changes must be discussed with the office.
