Bathroom Policy:
Potty training is not required, particularly for our younger students. However, if your child is not yet potty-trained or is in the process of being potty trained, please plan accordingly with pull-ups and/or have a change of clothes on hand (this is especially crucial for our camps, events, and longer length classes.) Even if your child is older, please encourage them to use the restroom before class begins. Frequent bathroom breaks interfere with class time, causing students to miss valuable instruction.
Enrollment & Billing Policy
I understand that CORE Kids Academy classes are continuous and do not have an end date. I understand that the annual membership fee, tuition fees, camp fees, and event fees are non-refundable and non-transferrable.

If we do not hear from you to drop by the 15th of the month, you will be committed for the following month. All our classes are continuous and enrollment will roll over each month. THERE IS NO END DATE TO CLASSES, YOUR CHILD WILL CONTINUE TO BE ENROLLED UNTIL YOU UNENROLL THEM.

Declined Payment Policy
Please ensure you have a current payment method on file, any declined payments will accrue a $5 reprocessing fee. If a declined payment occurs, I understand that I have 1 full business day to update my payment information without accruing a reprocessing fee.
If the payment information for classes is not updated by the last day of the month, I understand that my student will be dropped from their class and will lose their spot in the class.
Make-Up Policy
We have a strict sick policy. Please do not send your child to class sick. In order to receive a make up class, advanced notice of missing your class is required. Schedule advance absence notification through the parent account under "student" with as much advance notice as possible. When advanced notice is given, a make-up will become available to book which is also found under "student" & "schedule your makeup" linked under the absence date.
Parents may schedule makeups anytime as long as the student is actively enrolled in a class and as long as space is available. Upon un-enrollment, make ups will not be active to use. Should the student re-enroll at a future date, the make ups will then become active to use. Make-up class options will show 6 days out at a time. Opportunities will change as other families submit their advanced absences. Check for opportunities as often as you like!
Make-ups are NOT guaranteed and are based solely on availability ONLY.
Annual Membership Fee
I understand that by paying the annual membership fee, my entire family is granted membership status & associated perks. I understand that the annual membership fee is non-refundable.
The annual membership fee is required for all students participating in our classes and is valid for one (1) year. This fee is not required for those who sign up for camps, special events, or birthday parties.
Waitlist Policy
I understand that if a class is full, I may add my student to the waitlist. Being on a waitlist is free of charge. If a space becomes available, parents will be notified via email and have 24 hours to respond. If CORE Kids Academy does not receive a response, your child will be taken off the waitlist.
Clothing & Attire
Clothing for classes should be nonrestrictive. Clothing should be free of zippers, buttons, and other decorations that can catch on equipment. Necklaces, earrings, and other jewelry should not be worn in the gym.
Attire: Athletic wear, leotards, and unitards are all acceptable. Students will be barefoot on the gym floor. Hair that is longer than chin length is required to be tied back and pulled away from the face prior to class.
Ninja Zone: All students involved in our Ninja Zone classes are required to purchase and wear their ninja uniform t-shirt to class. Shirts can be purchased online or through our Pro Shop.
