This is an ongoing class. It for students 8-9 years old and around a 3rd grade level. Each week you are charged for the class as long as your stay enrolled. You may withdraw from class by Sunday to avoid being charged for the class the following week. You may join this class or un-enroll at any time. The content is different each time so you are never missing any information! 

Each week there are handouts that will need to be printed prior to class. These handouts are completed during class with the teacher through a PowerPoint presentation. We will meet each week in the Outschool classroom for class. There is no outside homework. 

If you are unable to make class, I do send the class video to students who are absent so that you make view the class video and complete the assignments missed on your own time. 

Below is the current schedule week to week. If you would like to attend one week and not the next that's fine. Hopefully this will give you a better idea as to what the focus is and which classes you would like to attend.
