For their safety, all students must be signed-in and out of the intensive each day. Students may be dropped off after 8:30 AM. Students must be picked up no later than 4:30 PM. 

A late pick-up fee will be charged if students are picked up after 4:30 PM. After-Care may be arranged from 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM for an additional fee of $150/week.

1. Tuition is $2,750 per child (payment plans are available).

2. The After-Care program fee is $150 per week. A fee of $50 will be charged for each instance of late pick-up (after 4:30 PM) for students who are not enrolled in the After-Care program.

3. No-risk early bird pricing and full pricing guarantee full refund if canceled before May 1, 2023. Partial refunds withholding $500 commitment fee available from May 2 - June 2, 2023. No refunds on or after June 3, 2023.

4. Need-based scholarships/financial assistance is available for qualifying students. Financial assistance applications may be obtained via email through Pat Taylor (ptaylor@thewallis.org). Families are responsible for paying any balances not covered by financial assistance awards.

The Intensive will provide daily snacks and water. If your child has food allergies or dietary restrictions, we recommend that you provide your child with an alternative snack and please let us know. Students must bring their own lunch.

EXPECTATIONS

1. Daily attendance is required for the full 6-week Intensive.

2. Students will treat all people and property with respect.

3. Students will support, encourage and work cooperatively with their peers.

4. Students will be prepared to participate fully and learn as this will ensure a successful experience.

5. Students will follow directions from teachers in the classroom and Wallis staff members while on campus.

CONDUCT

1. Students will follow directions from teachers in the classroom and all Wallis staff members while on campus.

2. Students are not permitted to tease or bully other students. Reports of bullying or other serious violations of the rules will be investigated by The Wallis staff, who will determine the appropriate follow-up action.

3. Cellphones must remain put away during class time and breaks.

4. Taking photographs or videotaping is not allowed.

5. Class rules and campus policies will be reviewed on the first day of classes.

Students are expected to follow all directions given by teachers and Intensive staff and to fully participate in the program. Students will be given one warning before a time out (written slip) will be given. Written slips will be recorded and given to a staff member who will make copies to notify parents. A first infraction of the rules will result in a time out (written report). A second infraction will result in the removal of the child from class and a phone call to a parent/guardian by the Intensive Director. The third infraction will result in a call to parent/guardian in order for the child to be picked up and or asked not to return. For serious violations of the rules and expectations, immediate suspension and/or removal from camp may be administered.

Refunds are not given for children unable to participate in classes due to disciplinary problems.

The Wallis believes in providing access to the arts. To apply for a need-based partial scholarship, please request a scholarship application on your registration form and a Wallis staff member will reach out. Scholarships will be awarded on a first, come, first served basis beginning on April 3, 2023.
