How does Registration work?

Before class starts, we will email you more information and a link to set up autopay. The total class fee will be charged the day of the first session. Please note that when you register for a class, there is a non-refundable $20 fee.

Before the first session, you may withdraw from a class for a partial refund. You must notify us by the third Thursday of the month to stop the billing process on the first of the following month if the class is running under a monthly subscription. If billing has already occurred, a refund cannot be issued. 

If a class is already in session but there is availability, please email us at info@rosellefa.com to prorate the final bill of registration and be added to the class roster.

If a class is showing as sold out/not available and you would like to be added to the wait list, please contact us via email at info@rosellefa.com. In your email, please list which class, the name(s) and age(s) of who wants to join, and the best way to contact you. If a spot opens up, we will reach out to you. Please note that you have 24-48 hours to respond before we try the next person on the wait list.

What happens if a class does not meet the minimum registrants?

Except for external circumstances, we will provide an email the Wednesday before the beginning of a session to notify you if the class will be in session. If a session is close to the minimum cutoff, we will extend registration to that upcoming Friday and will send out a follow-up email with updated information.

If there is a point where a class falls below the minimum attendance, we will notify families affected and open registration for an additional two weeks. If there is a class cancellation, you will be issued a refund for any payments after the non-refundable $20 fee.

Do you give Refunds for Missed Classes?

If you are aware of a vacation or upcoming conflict, please notify the instructor before the first of the month; we will prorate the session’s payment to reflect the absence. Notification must be given via the “Planned Absence Notification” form on our website at https://www.rosellefa.com/absent-notification.

Supplies are ordered based on registered class size. While we understand some absences are unplanned, we cannot offer a refund for classes missed due to illness or last-minute schedule conflicts.

How big are your classes?

Sessions run at a minimum of 4 students and a maximum of 12 students. Depending on the medium and time of year, there may be extensions to 18 students inside our building an 25 outside on our back lawn.

My child’s age is covered by more than one class. Which one should we register for?

We offer various mediums and class types to give our students a wide range of art experiences. Typically, we do not rerun previous courses and recommend looking at course descriptions to find a class that best suits your child’s interests.

If you are having trouble deciding or finding the right fit for your student, feel free to contact us and we will help!

My child is a little younger than the age range stated, but can they still join that class?

Our class age range and curriculum are based on fine motor skill development and social development. Exceptions will only be considered if your child has attended lessons with us previously or we have a working knowledge of their skill set.

My child HAS TIME CONFLICTS. CAN WE ARRIVE OR PICK UP LATE?

Due to the way our classes are structured, early pick-ups or late arrivals can be disruptive to classes and impact students’ learning. In addition, your child will miss out on key information or work time that will affect the overall impact of their chosen course. We will permit two instances in a course of early retrievals or late arrivals no longer than 20 minutes. If a delay happens a third time, we will discuss other options before suggesting removal from the program. This excludes emergency circumstances, and we encourage you to keep communication with us open.

How messy are the projects?

Depending on the material, some projects range from not messy at all (example: graphite or colored pencils), messy but washable (example: watercolor paints), to very messy and permanent (example: inks and acrylic paint). While we do offer aprons and smocks, we recommend that your child always arrive in clothing that can be permanently stained.

My child is on an IEP at school. Can they attend a class?

We welcome all students to attend our classes, including those with physical, emotional, learning, behavioral, or other development disabilities. We do require that you disclose the issues on the registration form, and if your child requires an aide at school for art class, we require an adult attend our class with the child. If at any point the environment is not conducive for the success of your student, we will discuss possible alternatives before removal from a session.

My child cannot climb stairs. Is there a way for them to attend A class?

Dependent on the time of year, we have access to the lawn beside the Fine Arts Academy and our first floor is wheelchair accessible. Those will always be options if the class is flexible enough to be mobile. If sessions must be held on the second floor or basement without exception, we will notify you and recommend removal from the session. That is only for very specific circumstances, considering most of our classes have the consideration to be mobile.

Can i stay and watch the class?

You are permitted to stay in attendance for the first class of a session if you are new to The Roselle Fine Arts Academy. Past that first class, it is encouraged that you wait in our front lobby area and allow your student to contact you there if anything requires your presence in that timeframe. The only exception to this is if your student requires an aide per IEP that has been previously stated. If at any point you are attending a class, we recommend that you take a silent approach in assisting your student.
