Parent handbook
Communication
Updates are sent by email to the parent/guardian. Students are not contacted directly outside class, office hours, and scheduled 1:1s.
Safety and privacy
- We collect only what's needed. Student names and details are requested only at enrollment.
- Group classes may be recorded with parent consent and shared privately with enrolled families only. 1:1 meetings are not recorded.
- Siblings and guests don't join private student sessions without their own registration.
Payments
$280 tuition. $29 deposit (charged at checkout, credited). $251 remainder collected only after the cohort fills, on a pay-in-full or installment schedule you explicitly authorize. If fewer than six paid deposits by December 5, 2026, deposits are refunded. No surprise charges.
Family Pass
At-home materials for the whole family. 25% sibling discount on a sibling's own live seat if available. A giftable Christmas welcome packet ships after the cohort is confirmed (shipping logistics TBD).
Frequently asked
Who is this for?
Students in grades 4–8. The studio is intentionally mixed-age. Every builder works on their own project, and each gets a project scaffold matched to their readiness — more structure for younger or newer builders, more open choice for older or experienced builders.
What does a week look like?
One live weekly group class, shared office hours where students can sign up for a slot, and roughly 30–60 minutes of optional independent work.
Can we book 1:1 time with the instructor?
Yes — private 30-minute 1:1 sessions are planned as an optional add-on for students who want individual time beyond the shared office hours. Pricing is TBC and will be shared before enrollment is finalized. Add-ons are always opt-in and agreed in advance; nothing is ever charged automatically.
When are classes?
The next January studio begins the week of January 5, 2027. The exact weekday and time are still TBC and will be late afternoon or early evening Eastern Time. Interested families can share their schedule preference on the interest form.
What if the class time doesn't work for us?
If the confirmed class day or time doesn't work for your family, your deposit is refunded in full — no hassle. We'd rather give the seat to someone who can make it than have a builder miss out.
How many students?
Six students maximum. Every studio is capped at six by design; when one fills, the next studio opens with its own dates.
Policy language in this handbook is a draft pending founder and legal review.
