Please put exact cash or check in an envelope with your printed registration receipt and place in the drop box labeled Adult Education Program. Office hours are Monday to Friday 7:00AM to 3:00PM. This box will be available during the online registration period from February 10th to February 17th . All payments must include a printout of your receipt to be properly allocated. Payments will need to be made for the exact amount (there will not be anyone available to make change) in either cash or check payable to Kevin Sypolt (Parent Teacher Auxiliary). Any additional charges for materials are listed with the course and are to be paid directly to the teacher. Classes are subject to a minimum of 4 students. If we are unable to meet this requirement you will be notified and your money refunded. Refunds will only be given in the event a course is cancelled due to lack of participants.
