List of 19 items.

• Admission

  Enrollment in Summer at Crossroads has no bearing on admission for the academic year.

• Absences & Tardies

  For Upper School credit courses students must plan to attend all twenty-four days of class. 
  
  We understand that illness can happen in the summer. For classes that meet for twenty-four days, a student may miss a maximum of three class sessions. For classes that meet less than twenty-four, a student may only miss two class sessions. Two tardies to the same class may count as one absence.

   

  When absent or late to class, students are still responsible for completing all assigned work. Students must complete all course requirements to receive Upper School academic credit. Additional absences will lower a student’s grade in the class and or may preclude the awarding of any credit.

• Canceled Classes

  We reserve the right to combine or cancel any program or course or to add additional sections and teachers as necessary. In some cases, a course will be offered at more than one time. In the event of a cancellation, we will make every attempt to place the student in a comparable program or course. You will be notified when your choices are unavailable. If we are unable to find a program or course that meets your needs, a full refund will be issued.

• Enrollment

  Enrollment is open to the public. Enrollment deadlines will vary by course and will be noted in the course descriptions. Enrollment is based on a first-come first-served basis.
  
  

  Many programs and courses have a minimum and maximum enrollment. Waitlists for most courses are not available. 

• Enrollment Deadlines

  To provide our faculty with time to create these amazing programs and plan for their summer, we now have enrollment deadlines for many of our one-week programs (see each program description for deadline dates).
  
  

  As soon as the minimum enrollment requirement is met, the enrollment deadline will be lifted, and spaces will be available until the program or class is sold out. Programs that do not meet the minimum enrollment may be canceled, and families will be contacted to select alternative options.
  
  

  We encourage you to enroll early.

• Enrollment Kits

Included in these kits are Trip Release Forms, Student Handbooks, and other information we may require prior to the first day of a program or course.

  Summer at Crossroads primary concern is the quality of education for its students. For the summer school to function properly, it is necessary for each member of the community to cooperate in upholding standards of politeness and respect.

• Refunds & Dropped Classes

  We recognize that summer plans can change.  The School contracts with faculty and assumes material and other costs based upon processed enrollments. A withdrawal by a student does not change the School’s obligation and expense.  Please note the following dates for processing of any refunds (less the non-refundable processing fee of $50.00 per student).

  
  Written or email notification for all cancellations or changes is required.

  • Withdrawals or dropped classes between March 15 and May 31 = 50% refund (less processing fee).
  • Withdrawals or dropped classes between June 1 and June 15 = 25% refund (less processing fee).
  • No refunds are given for withdrawals made after June 15.

   

  In the event of a canceled class or program, Crossroads will issue a refund (including the processing fee, if the entire enrollment is canceled) based on the method of payment.

• Tuition Reduction (Financial Aid)

  In an effort to support the socio-economic diversity of our summer student population, a limited number of financial aid awards are available to lower the cost of summer classes. Awards are made based on demonstrated need.
  
  

  For current Crossroads students, financial aid is processed automatically. Families are to enroll (using the current XRDS online enrollment forms) by April 17 and indicate the student is currently receiving financial aid. Families will be contacted by the Summer Office with award details.

  
  For NON-Crossroads students, our financial aid process and procedures have changed for Summer 2020. And, due to the current situation with COVID-19, the original March 20 date for activating our financial aid applications has changed as well. We know that many of you are anxious to get the application process started, but at this time, we do not have a start date for this process. Instead of asking you to check back, please complete the short form on our Financial Aid page, so we can contact you when we have more information.
