9 CLASS SESSION TUITION POLICY:
Tuition is due in full when a student is registered for class session. If a payment is not paid in full, payment arrangements must be made & a credit card must be on file in your account. If balance is not paid in full by the 4th week of the session, the student will be removed from the class and possibly lose his/her spot due to the waitlist. This tuition policy also applies to all mid-session registration. Only with a doctor's note stating the child is ill or injured will any payments be refunded or applied to the parent account as a credit.
OPEN GYM POLICY:
Olympia staff is present in the gym to address safety concerns as they happen. Children 8 years and under must have an adult with them at all times in the gym during Open Gym. Olympia staff is only responsible for students while they are inside of the gym. If you choose to drop your child off, Olympia staff is not responsible after they leave the gym and Open Gym is complete. Children are not allowed to be unattended in the viewing area. We understand if something happens and there is a small delay in retrieving your child, but Olympia is not responsible for them in the viewing area or if they leave the viewing area and go outside. Price for Open Gym is $5.25 A discount of .25 cents for cash is given.
CAMP POLICY:
Olympia Gymnastics is not licensed by the state of Texas. Each child receives direct instruction in gymnastics & tumbling to improve the proficiency and expertise on vault, bars, beam & floor. Daily Camps require payment in full when enrolling. $50 cancellation fee 7 days from camp start date. $100 cancellation fee 48 hours from camp start date. Holiday or any "special" camp will require payment in full and is NON REFUNDABLE or TRANSFERABLE. Camps will fill quickly & we do turn students away. Only with a doctor's note stating the child is ill or injured will any payments be refunded or applied to the parent account as a credit. Disciplinary actions are taken to keep everyone safe in the gym. Staff will go over the rules of camp during stretch time. A verbal warning is given to the student followed by time out if the rule is broken a 2nd time. Any physical harm to another camper or staff member will result in termination of camp enrollment & no refund will be given.
