The class schedule and staff assignments are made based on the number of students enrolled. Staff salaries are dependent on parents honoring their commitment to enroll in a class. Parents will be responsible for the full year’s tuition whether or not their child completes the full year, for any reason.

Tuition Grants

CHET may offer need-based tuition assistance on a case-by-case basis for returning families, based on what is available in our scholarship fund. Please see the Financial Operations Manager for details.

*An effort has been made to finalize the class schedule, however, some classes could be subject to change. You will be notified if such is the case (there will be no charge to the parents for course changes made by the Center.)

*Certain classes will require you to purchase the assigned text or supplies. Specific titles and items will be listed in the course descriptions.

*To ensure our teachers receive their due payments in a timely manner, we will not be accepting monthly cash payments during the course of the year.
