policy - please read
If discipline or behavior issues arise, at MWCA’s teacher’s discretion, we may request that a parent or other responsible adult attend class and assist with the student’s instruction. Our art classes are a step above what is commonly offered and are technique-based. Very often, fine art supplies and tools are used (not craft-level). As such, concentration and attention to instruction is needed; disruption cannot be an on-going concern. When necessary, MWCA reserves the right to refund any unused class fees and suspend the student from further participation. Students are expected to behave in an age-appropriate manner, sit in a classroom setting, take instruction and handle art supplies and equipment with care and respect. Thank you for understanding.
