ANNIVERSARY/REGISTRATION FEE
Each Active Enrolling Art, Dance, Music, and/or Theatre Family will be charged a $50 anniversary/registration fee. (Example: If one family has two students with one student in art and the other in music, the family pays only one registration fee of $50, which covers all family members whether the enrollment is art, dance, music, or theatre.)
This fee is good for one year or until you drop out of the program.
Please Note: The anniversary fee does not apply to summer program enrollments but will populate for summer class enrollments. (To postpone the class registration fee until fall, please call to have an administrator complete the student’s enrollment.)
