A: Please see the withdrawal page for more information. Requests received after the 15th of your final month are subject to a $25 processing fee.
Q: How can I report an upcoming absence?
A: You can report an absence by filling out the absence form on our website. Provided KSA is notified exactly 24 hours in advance, your student is eligible for a make-up class.
Q: How do I schedule a make up class?
A: Make up classes are available for absences that are reported at least 24 hours ahead of time. They can be scheduled the week you’d like to attend, by filling out the make up request form online, or via our app. Eligible absences expire 30 days from the absence date.
Q: What if I forget to withdraw and my card is charged the following month?
A: Unfortunately we do not offer refunds after the month is charged, so please plan to withdraw on time.
Q: What days are you closed?
A: KSA is closed every Sunday and the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. If your lessons fall on any of these holidays, you will not be billed for this day.
Q: What is your swim diaper policy?
A: Any child under three years of age (and any child who is not yet potty trained) must wear a double swim diaper. What does this mean? Wearing a disposable swim diaper with a snug fitting reusable swim diaper over it. Bathing suits do not comply with this requirement. Reusable or washable swim diapers are available for purchase from the KSA office if needed.
Q: Do you offer family swim time?
A: Yes! We offer free family swim (reservation required). Please visit our Family Open Swim page for more information
Q: How Do Watch Lists Work?
A: Registering on our “watch lists” let’s us know you would like to be notified when a class opens up. We send out emails that go to every student listed on the watch list. It is a first come first serve basis. The best way to get a class time that works for your schedule is to call the office and ask them to look for upcoming availability or new classes that are starting. We call it a watch-list to encourage all parties involved to watch the enrollment as often as possible to ensure a spot!
