Activity Program

A student enrolled in the five day, three day, or individual day activity program receives supervision, homework assistance, snack, and participation in their selected activity.

Please refer to the activity schedule for a complete list of offered courses and their designated session and day.

Homework Assistance Program

What distinguishes this from the activity program is that the student does not participate in a daily after school activity. In this program, students attend study hall with other age appropriate children and concentrate on homework. This is not similar to one-on-one tutoring. Students needing more attention should seek private tutoring. This is for students who do not wish to participate in a daily activity. A five day, three day and individual day program is available.

One-on-One Program

We provide individual instruction for students who are interested in playing a particular musical instrument or who wish to sharpen their academic knowledge through intense, personalized assistance. Professional music instructors and Awty School teachers are contracted to provide such guidance.

Cancellations/Changes

It may be necessary for a class to be changed or cancelled. Before the semester begins, if the minimum enrollment is not met for each activity, the class will not be offered. Parents will be contacted and a full refund will be made.

Absence and Make-Up Policy

Activity Program: In the event that the instructor is absent and/or a class must be canceled (rainout, sick, etc.); we will attempt to schedule a make-up lesson. However, we can not guarantee any make-up lessons due to constraints. A refund will not be given unless there are excessive canceled classes.

Music Lessons: If the instructor is absent, he or she must schedule a make-up lesson which is convenient with the student. The instructor is not obligated to make-up a lesson when the student is absent. It is at the full discretion and decision of the instructor. Furthermore, a refund will not be given for any missed lessons. Students missing a lesson should contact both the instructor and the Awty Plus Office as soon as they are aware of their absence.

Refund Policy

A student who withdraws from the program before attending the selected activity will receive a full refund less a $75.00 administrative fee. All refunds must be requested in writing to the Director of Awty Plus. No refunds will be given after the first day of class. This pertains to all pre-paid programs. This policy is strictly enforced.

Payment

All charges are billed to the student’s account, and the standard School payment terms apply.

Additional Fees

Some activities require additional fees (equipment, uniforms, supplies, etc.).

Drop-In Service

On occasion, parents are not able to pick up their child immediately after school due to work, an emergency, or being out of town. A child who does not typically attend the after school program is considered a drop-in. Drop-ins do not participate in after school activities, but receive supervision, homework assistance, and a snack. Please call beforehand so that the Awty Plus Staff knows to expect your child. There is a $25.00 fee for each child per day. This fee applies to any duration of time spent in Awty Plus.

Operating Hours

Operating Hours for Awty Plus are from dismissal of school until 6:00 P.M. We are open for fall, winter, and spring break from 7:30 A.M. until 6:00 P.M. Please note that the program is closed during Thanksgiving and the Christmas Holidays, along with Primary School Parent/Teacher Conference Days.

Late Pick-Up Policy

For each child that is picked up late, $1.00 per minute is charged. This charge will be billed to the student’s account. This policy is strictly enforced.
