Class Times Classes are from 9:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. with a Pause/recess around 11 a.m.. Each school year has 30 class sessions.

Flummi class time (Stamford only) is from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m..

Flummi Classes For Flummi classes (Stamford only) one caregiver needs to be with the child in the classroom at all times.
Family Discounts Family discounts will only be applied automatically if the same email address/account is used for all registrations. Please always use only one account for your family.
Time Saver As a time saver when completing the registration forms, all applicable fields will be prefilled with values from prior registrations and/or registrations of other family members.
Adult Student Registrations When registering for any of the adult classes, please note that the registration screens and confirmations may refer to the student as a "Child". As the registration system we are using has originally been designed for use with junior sports leagues, this wording can unfortunately not be changed.
