Age levels are assigned to courses to describe the required maturity standard for the course; please feel free to contact Nicole Noster () to inquire if the age requirement can be waived for a course you believe would be a good fit for your child.
Please note that some courses have prerequisites and these should be considered when planning your course schedule. Some courses which fill up will have another section offered if sufficient interest is shown from a growing waiting list. Please do register for the waiting list of a full course if you are interested in another section being made available.
Courses marked A and B are identical in content; these letters name different sections occurring at different times. Courses marked 1 and 2 signify courses with similar themes, but different content. They do not necessarily require that one be taken before the other.
