HOW THIS WORKS FOR NON-RETURNING FAMILIES

We request that families that do not plan to return let us know before May 15. This notification allows us to offer your slot to another family. 

All records will be held in a non-transferable status until all financial accounts are settled, including any possible withdrawal fees.
