F.A.Q.
Does my child need to be reading to attend a class? Yes, it is much easier on the child if he/she is able to read the material given. Beginner readers are accepted as long as the parent is able to help review and study the material with the child at home.
Do the parents of the students have to be present at time of class? No, the parents or guardians do not need to stay during the class time but must be able to drop child off and pick up on time.
Parents are welcome to stay in the back of the ballroom and enjoy complimentary coffee or tea during class times.
We ask all our parents to refrain from loud chatter and cell-phone use during class time as it disrupts the students concentration and work. It is very important that the children feel like their class time is about them and not about silencing the adults.
We also ask our parents to stay out of view of the students, so the students do not feel distracted or inhibited during class times.
