How does Registration work?

When you register for a class, a non-refundable $20 registration fee is paid. You will be contacted before class starts with more information and a link for getting set up for autopay in our billing system. The total amount paid will be ran when the first session commences.

You may withdraw early from a session before the first class. You must notify us by the August 25th, 2026 to stop the billing process at the first of the month. Once billing has occurred, we will not issue a refund.

If a class is already in session, you may be permitted to join if there is space available. If you would like to inquire about being added to a class, please email us at info@rosellefa.com.

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 with details of which class, the name(s) and age(s) of who wants to join the class, and best way to contact you. You will be contacted if a spot opens up and have 24 hours to respond before we try the next person on the list.

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

With the exception of external circumstances, we will provide a direct email the Wednesday before the beginning of a session to notify if class will run or not. This acts as a point of contact and the deadline for registration. If a session is close to the minimum cut off, we will extend registration to that upcoming Friday and will send out an updated email if the outcome has changed.

If we end up cancelling the class, you will be issued a refund for any money after the non-refundable $20 fee.

If there is a point where a class falls below the minimum, we will notify families affected, open registration for an additional two weeks, and notify once more if the session needs to be cancelled and issued a partial refund.

Do you give Refunds for Missed Classes?

Supplies are ordered based off of the amount of students signed up for a session. If there are unforeseen circumstances, those supplies cannot be returned or repurposed. For this reason, we cannot issue refunds for classes missed due to illness or last minute schedule conflicts.

For planned absences with advanced notice - If you are aware of a vacation or upcoming conflict and notify the instructor PRIOR TO 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: https://www.rosellefa.com/absent-notification.

How big are your classes?

Sessions run at a minimum of 5 students and will max out at 12 students. Dependent on the medium and time of year, there may be extensions to 15 students, but this accounts for outdoor and alternative spaces.

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

Several of our sessions include an overlap to account for the varying interests of our community. While there are exceptions where we will add another occurrence of a popular class, we provide the opportunity for students of the same age group to experience different mediums, instructors, and time slots.

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?

No. We have ages carefully chosen based on the fine motor skills for that range and base our curriculum on those developments, both physically and socially. Exceptions will only be considered if your child has attended lessons with us previously and we have a working knowledge of their skill set.

My child doesn’t get home from school in time. can we come a little late?

Our sessions are carefully planned with the goal of providing ample time to introduce concepts, develop skills, and clean up our space. We will permit two instances in a session of delays no longer than 20 minutes that can be due to unforeseen circumstances. If a delay happens a third time, we will discuss other options before the suggestion of removal from the program.

My child has another activity after class. Can we pick them up a little early?

Disruptions like early pick ups tend to shift the flow of progress in a given class. We will permit two instances in a session of early retrievals no earlier than 20 minutes (unless incase of an emergency). If this instance happens a third time, we will discuss other options before suggestion of removal from the program.

How messy are the projects?

Dependent 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, it is highly recommended that your student always arrives 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.
