School Year Classes

All students are considered actively enrolled in the school year program September – June. Students that do not plan to continue with their scheduled class must provide a two-week written notice of withdrawal to the office. Enrollment for school year classes is open the entire school year, please contact the office to find out a good start date for your student, if enrolling after September. Classes are filled on a first-come first-served basis.

  • Tuition: Tuition is due the first of each month or prior to the beginning of your scheduled class session. If tuition is not received within seven days of the required due date, the student’s spot will automatically be forfeited. Continual late payment may mean dismissal from the program.
  •  Automatic Payment Policy: This policy will take effect only for ongoing School Year Classes. This option requires a credit card to be kept on file. Automatic payment begins with your first month’s registration. Your credit card will be charged on the first of each month. All auto-pay cancellations must be submitted prior to the first of the month. Missed classes will not be refunded or deducted from tuition. 
  • Student Drop Off/Pick Up: Kitsap Art cannot be responsible for your student more than 5 minutes prior to and past the scheduled class time. Parents will be contacted to find a better schedule for students repeatedly dropped off or picked up late. If you have any specific requirements related to who can/cannot pick up your students outside of the emergency contact on your registration sheet, it is imperative that you provide the office with an approved list of names and phone numbers so that your student’s file can be updated and provided to all instructors
