  • I am new and missed the Back to School Orientation?  When do you have another one?  If you missed the August 26th meeting, please go to this video link and watch this with your children.  Pay special attention to the rule for students and financial information.  Oftentimes when parents and children don’t attend this orientation, there is a misunderstanding and both you and I are frustrated and the children get into trouble because they don’t know the rules.  This info is super-important.
  • Explain to me again about the finances at HEART?  Remember that you paid your first monthly installment (Of 9 installments) when you registered.  Your second installment was due September 1.  If you came to the August 26th meeting, then you gave your teachers that September check to them.  That leaves 7 more installments to pay and the October installment is due October 1.

  • What is your policy about dropping classes?  We went through the info together when you registered on page 8 of your Review Sheet.  Notify the teacher by email and copy to Crissi Allen so she can notate your file. Pay for one more month and then you are done with the class.
