New to the 2021-2022 school year, Trailside will offer “A la Carte” classes on Mondays!

Who may attend these classes?

These classes will be open to the local homeschool community. While you don’t need to be a member of our Tuesday/Thursday academy days to join in, members will receive 20% off their total of Monday classes (excluding supply fee).

How does pricing and payment work?

Prices listed for each class are for the entirety of our 2021-2022 school year. We offer flexible payment plans that may be made in full or broken up into monthly installments. Upon request, additional payment plans can be arranged by emailing trailsidega@gmail.com. Invoices will be sent out accordingly within 30 days of your registration, however payments will not be due until the first day of your class. Students enrolled in the academy program will automatically receive a 20% off discount from their total of Wednesday classes (excluding supply fees).

How do I register?

Priority registration for our current Trailside Online families opens up on April 8th, and will open publicly on April 15th.

What else should I know about “Trailside A la Carte”?

A La Carte classes are drop off classes. Currently due to Covid-19, we must limit the amount of people inside our rental facility, so there will be no designated waiting area available at this time. If your student is attending back to back classes, our instructors will ensure their transition to their next class. We do have ample space for parents to sit outside and for younger siblings to play on the playground, however.

Joining Trailside A la Carte grants you access to our Family Fridays program. For more information, click here.

Before registering….

  1. Please review what we are currently implementing in order to help stop the spread of Covid-19.
  2. Please review all of our general policies and procedures
