​We will notify you via email or phone if a class is canceled or changed, so you can assume your class will be held if you are not notified. Please ensure your account is updated with your preferred phone and email. Full refunds are issued if Community Education cancels a class. Participant-requested refunds incur a processing fee (deducted from the refund): $5 for $0–$39 classes, $10 for $40–$149, and $20 for $150+. To transfer to another class or session, please contact us. Refund or transfer requests must be made at least one week before the start date; no refunds are issued within one week. Classes may be canceled due to low enrollment, facility issues or weather; if a weather-related class cannot be rescheduled or if the new date does not work, a refund may be issued.

Fees for Community Education adult and youth enrichment classes may be reduced if you are a District 720 resident. Each community member may receive up to a 50% fee reduction on one Community Education class or activity per catalog. Fees will not be reduced for: ECFE, Stepping Stones Preschool, Youth Driver's Education, Saber Connection or the 55+ Driver Discount Program. Other exclusions may apply. To request a fee reduction, call 952-496-5029.

​We provide reasonable accommodations for individuals to effectively participate in classes, programs and events. If you or a family member require support or assistance, please contact us at 952-496-5029.

Examples of accommodations include: Sign language interpreter, support person to provide assistance for a child, assistive listening kit, accessible meeting location, etc. To allow time for us to meet your needs, please contact us at least three weeks prior to the activity start date.

​Participants must be picked up by a responsible adult as soon as the class/activity is over. A $15 fee will be charged and invoiced after 15 minutes and $5 for each additional five minutes the child remains in class. The late pick-up fee will be enforced no matter who is scheduled to pick up the child. 

​When severe weather affects the regular school day, daytime activities or classes that meet immediately after school are also canceled. Evening classes may be held if there is significant improvement in weather conditions. Participants will be contacted if a class is going to be canceled or rescheduled. Please ensure your account is updated with your preferred email and phone number.
