As we work our way into winter, it’s time to update everyone on a few notes for our Fall Session (as well as our upcoming Winter Programming).The Fall Session of Literacy Tutoring ends on November 19th, and we”ll be taking the rest of the holiday season off. (It’s crazy enough as it is.) The Winter Session will begin the week of January 16.Our Fall Session of Little Fingers/Busy Hands will continue until December 7 (though there are no classes on Nov. 21, owing to the Thanksgiving week). The Winter Session will begin the week of Jan. 23.
And our Teen Drama Class will continue through December 18, when the class will showcase their work for our Holiday Pageant and Party at Stage 773 (time: 10:30 a.m. – 1 p.m.). Their extended
Winter/Spring session will begin in January as well.If you’re interested in continuing (or beginning) enrollment in one of these programs for the Winter, e-mail us for an application. Note: currently enrolled students must re-enroll.
