FAQ about Parenting Classes

What if the parenting issues of my children fit in several of the tracts…

… ie. I have a toddler and a challenging child or I have a preschooler and a school-age child? Participants in parenting classes must complete one track of classes to get a certificate of completion, therefore they must choose which parenting issues to focus on when they enroll. Once a participant receives a certificate of completion, however, they are free to come back for another track at no additional cost.

What is the cost of parenting classes?

Classes are $15.00 each week or $100 if you prepay on the first night of enrollment (This saves you $50.00) Prepay will only be accepted on the participant’s first day of class. Minimum enrollment is $15.00.

How do I enroll?
