Q: May I “reserve” a place in the class? How do I register?

Q: Can I send a snack?

Q: Is there a registration deadline?
A:You can register as late as the first day of class, but by waiting you run the risk of the class either being full or being cancelled. Usually final class decisions are made 72 hours in advance (1 week in the summer months).We would hate to cancel a class without knowing about your interest in taking it.
Q: What if I cannot attend all the sessions?
A: Missing a class once in a while is okay – we know the students who take our classes are people with busy schedules and vibrant lives! Because these are non-credit courses, you will not be penalized for missing a class, and you cannot get a refund for any classes missed.
Q: Do you offer discounts for seniors, siblings or multiple classes?
A: At this time we do not offer any discounts at this time.
Q: What are the material fees for?
A: The fees cover materials, supplies, equipment rental or other items the instructor plans to use in the class. These costs are passed on directly to the instructor and we do not profit from them. You pay for the materials at the time of registration.
Q: What happens if the course is closed?
A: If the course fills up and is closed, you can choose to add yourself to the waiting list. If a spot becomes available we will contact you via email and notify you of the open spot. Every effort will be made to accommodate you – we’ve been known to create new class sections to meet your needs.
Q: Where will my class be held?
A: Most of our after school enrichment classes are held on the EISD campuses, with the exception of few classes that meet off campus. You will be able to view room assignments and class locations when you register. Off campus location will also be given at time of registration.
