Schedule:
This course will only be offered as an AYOP (At Your Own Pace) course during the 2019-20 school year.
We pre-order a set number of seats in April to get a significant discount. We purchase a bulk discount package that is divided evenly between our families. Exact cost will be determined in August once we have final enrollment numbers, but we estimate it will be between $5-$10 per student. (Per student cost goes down as we have more students enrolled.)
After August 2, families will be billed for their portion of the course based on the number of students enrolled in the class. We can't bill until we know final enrolled numbers. To guarantee your child's spot in the class, payment for the course must be received by August 15. After that, seating will be opened to waiting list families, and students will be seated first come, first serve by payment date.
NOTE: This course requires purchase of access to online Dave Ramsey content.
