Full Waiver of Tuition.
THE LAST DAY OF REGISTRATION FOR SUMMER INSTITUTE IS MAY 2, 2016.
2.
ATTENDANCE: More than ONE absence, excused or unexcused, may disqualify a student from receiving credit. The
highly concentrated program offered in the Summer Institute session makes full time attendance necessary. Explanatory notes
from parents will be required for absences and tardiness, and all cases will be subject to verification by the school office.
Absences will be determined as excused or unexcused by the same rules used during the school year. Vacations and sports
clinics are NOT excused absences.
3. CANCELLATION OF COURSES: Classes that do not meet enrollment requirements will be cancelled. The summer
institute office and Wootton High School administrators will make decisions regarding the cancellation of individual courses.
Students will be notified if their class is cancelled and given the opportunity to switch to another session of that same class or
receive a refund, so long as registration is still open. Please be aware that some cancellations could take place a couple of
weeks before the start of the program. Make sure to check your email frequently for any updates/cancellations. Email is the
only method used to notify you of cancellations and missing registration information.
4.
REFUND POLICY: Full refund if WHS cancels a class for any reason. Full refund if you cancel registration prior to June
1. 50% refund if you cancel registration between June 1 and June 15. No refund if you cancel registration on or after June
16th. No exceptions. This applies to all applications, no matter when received for enrollment process or when the class is
being offered. One day of attendance makes a student ineligible for a refund. Enrolling after summer institute has begun and
then cancelling attendance will result in no refund.
5. ENROLLEES: Only incoming freshman and current enrolled students of Thomas S. Wootton High School may attend
