Cancellation and Refund Policy

KCYA reserves the right to cancel any course with fewer than three students enrolled. Timely registration will help keep your chosen course open, so enroll early! Should KCYA cancel a course due to low enrollment, you will receive 48 hours notice and a full refund of the fees paid.

If you withdraw your child from a course prior to the first day of class, your tuition will be refunded less a $10 processing fee per course. No refunds will be given after the second meeting of any class except for documented medical reasons.

NEW! Inclement Weather Policy
On inclement weather days, a decision may need to be be made to cancel classes. We will make that decision by 2:00pm, but we also reserve the right to cancel classes after 2pm if the weather conditions worsen. You may call the office at 816.531.4022 ext. 1888 to hear a recorded message about closing due to weather. We will also post our closing on local TV stations - look for the Community School of the Arts.
