We offer 2 different payment options for our in-school programs in EGCSD. Choose from 4 monthly payments of $68, or receive a $20 discount for paying in full for the 13-week session ($252).
CUSTOMER PORTAL. For your convenience, you can access your account information on-line anytime. View your statements, pay off your balance, update your contact/billing info...all on-line! Go to dramakids.com/albany-ny and click on the tab Parent Portal. Set up a password using your email address, and you're good to go! TUITION IS NON-REFUNDABLE, with the exception of our conditional money-back guarantee, available to new students only. Tuition is due as required by the payment plan you select. There will be a $15.00 late fee applied to late payments. There is a $30.00 return check charge for any checks returned by the bank. The cost of our program is based on 12-week session running for a total of 22 hours. This average fee proactively takes in account major holidays and added hours for dress rehearsals and spring performances. You will receive a calendar of classes shortly before the 1st day of class. **Monthly plans are paid by automatic credit card payment only.** The 1st month payment will be charged to your credit card upon registration, and then on the 15th of each subsequent month for a total of 4 months per session. Monthly payments reflect our session tuition divided into equal monthly payments, regardless of how many times the class meets within that month. For those enrolling early for the Spring Session, payment is not due until the first day of the Session (Jan or Feb). Sign up early for the Spring Session and we will waive the $20 registration fee! Enroll via the Parent Portal ADDITIONAL FEES: A $20 non-refundable registration fees is charged upon enrollment. Additional Performance Fees are NOT charged for our in-school programs. (If you enroll during our early enrollment period, we will waive the $20 registration fee, so ACT NOW!) SIBLING DISCOUNT: If you are enrolling additional children, a 10% discount will be offered for the second and third children. All additional fees are charged per family, not per student. We will not issue credits or refunds due to missed classes. You may call our office to make a reservation for a make-up class at another location during the same week (or during one of our school break camps). No refunds will be given if a student drops prior to the end of a session. NEW-STUDENT GUARANTEE: If after the first two classes, your child finds it is not a good fit for them, then they are under no obligation to continue in the program. If pre-paying, your tuition is refunded to you, minus the cost of the first two classes ($34). We must receive written notification that your child will not be continuing at least a week prior to the end of the trial, otherwise this offer is null and void. Please call or email us if you have any questions, or you need to pay with a check instead of credit card. Contact our Office Administrator at [email protected] or call us at 518-458-1313. "Drama Kids has embraced both of my kids - their strengths, their weaknesses, their quirks, their individuality - I know they truly care about creating kind and talented children of character. So thankful to be part of the Drama Kids family!" "Thank you Ms. Deanna for being a passionate and dedicated director. I could not forget your enthusiasm the first time I called to inquire about this program. Drama Kids is truly unique where all kinds of kids are given the opportunity to shine on stage. Even though my daughter is a quiet girl, I realized that she likes to be on stage and is not afraid to perform in front of an audience. Next year she's off to high school and I believe that the experiences she had in Drama Kids will give her the confidence to face challenges in high school - on and off stage." "The teachers have so much passion and energy, and it's contagious in the best way!" "My drama teachers inspire me because they let me know that it is okay to be quirky and express yourself sometimes. They help me build my self confidence on stage and off. Every teacher I have encountered at Drama Kids has greeted me with a smile and teaches me with enthusiasm, which even on a bad day can make me feel good! I am very grateful to be a student at Drama Kids... and that is how each and every teacher inspires me every time I go to class!" "Thank you Drama Mama and Miss Jillian for such a wonderful year of drama fun! I can’t thank you both enough for what you both have done for my son! We are so proud of him for earning his special award for his hard work and genuine enthusiasm for drama. He’s sad he has to wait till September for Drama to start again! Such a wonderful place for kids to be creative!" "I love how in Drama Kids you are allowed to be who you are and also pretend to be someone else. Its always fun and I never feel left out. I love to watch my teachers do crazy funny things and be themselves. It makes me happy to be able to have fun and let go. They inspire me to just be free." "My Drama Kids teachers inspire me in each and every class how to be more open, more passionate, more dramatic, and more spontaneous! From the moment I first stepped into the classroom more than 7 years ago, my teachers began changing me for the better, showing me to how to accept myself and have the confidence to step onto that brightly lit stage. All of their teaching and advice over the years has shaped who I am today and taught me more than any college class I've taken!" "I love Drama Kids of the Capital Region. My kids have grown up with this program and have really enjoyed going here. Staff and Drama Mama have been amazing over the years. So glad we tried this out many years ago and stuck with it. Thank you!" "My Drama teachers have inspired me to be more positive, not only to myself but to the world. They inspire me, and everyone, to take risks, because that is what you need to do in real life if you want to succeed. And I always feel I succeed in Drama!" "Just wanted to send you all a quick thank you! This year was great. Our Drama Kids loved every minute of it! Every Tuesday morning was a joy, because they wake up soooo happy – its Drama Kids day…. The shows yesterday were fantastic! So many great kids!" "My teachers make me feel free to be creative, and fun, and funny. I feel energized whenever I'm with them in class." "Drama Kids is an amazing place where all three of my kids have flourished and found how amazing the stage can be. The teachers are patient and caring, and we as a family truly cannot say enough positive things about Deana, aka Drama Mama. She truly cares about each student as if she/he was her own. She’s easy to communicate with and has made our past 7 years with Drama Kids, a wonderful experience. Your child will not only learn so much about him or herself, but have fun doing so."
Can I sign my child up for both the Fall & Spring Sessions? Unfortunately, no. The Fall session is ONLY held for students in grades 3rd-5th, while the Spring Session is ONLY held for K-2nd graders.
What happened to #ProjectSilverScreen? Due to the rising costs and staffing that our previous film sessions required, we no longer offer our film project at any of our in-school locations. If you would still like to experience the magic of film-making, we would LOVE for your child to join us at any of our community locations held throughout Albany County! Our Film Academy classes run September through January. You chose a class based on a time, day and location that is convenient for you. Check out our list of classes here: dramakids.com/albany-ny/class-schedule/albany-county/ Or join us during one of our school break camps at Our Savior's School in Albany. During the February, April & Summer Breaks, we will be offering full & part-time camp options in conjunction with KidzArt & Club Scientific. Come make a movie with us during your child's break weeks! Register at: dramakids.com/albany-ny/vacation-summer-camps/ What is your Snow/ Bad Weather Policy? We follow the East Greenbush Central School District's closing policy. Unfortunately, we cannot be held responsible for inclement weather and cannot extend our term into future weeks, or offer refunds. We will try our best to use the emergency snow make-up days listed on the district calendar, but we can not guarantee the space will be available. However, if a class is missed due to inclement weather, a student may make it up by attending a class offered at a different Drama Kids location during the same week. What should my child wear to class? Whatever your child wears to school that day is fine! For the end of session performance, your child will be asked to provide their own costume. Costumes should cost little to no money. More details to follow. Additional questions? At anytime if you wish to contact us, call (518) 458-1313 or email your In-school Program Supervisor, Ellen Cribbs at [email protected], our Office Administrator at [email protected], or our Director, Deanna at [email protected]. |
