Class Schedule 2019-20

I WAS WONDERING...

I see your schedule, but I still don’t know which class to sign up for…

On our schedule you will see that we have after school and Saturday morning classes for boys and girls ages 5 and up. 

During these hours, we generally have 4 classes happening at the same time in the gym. Each class is made up of 8 students and 1 teacher. (For pre-school classes the ratio is 6:1) 

For example, on Tuesdays at 3:45pm we could have one group of boys, and three groups of girls (5-6 yrs old, 7-8 yrs old and 9-11 yrs old). Then at 5:00pm, we might have the same age ranges for girls (3 classes), and another boys class (ages 8-10).

All classes are grouped by age; so when you sign up, just tell us your preferred day and time. If we don’t have a class that works, we’ll give you a call to discuss other day/time options. (Hint – the earlier you sign up – the more likely it is that you can have your preferred day and time…which is especially helpful if you have more than one child) 

What if the class we sign up for is too easy (or too hard) for my child?

Our instructors are used to having a range of abilities in each class; so many of the lesson plan stations will have an easy option or a ‘super challenge’. This way, each child can progress at their own pace. 

In the event that the instructor or student feels that the class is not a good fit, it is always possible to switch into another class.
