A: Yes, however, Kamen STEM is listening to all the recommendations put out by the city, state, and national health departments and has made changes accordingly. Based on their recommendations and our own board of directors taking extra precautions, we have decided to reduce the maximum enrollment for all our In-Person classes, requiring frequent student hand washing, performing temperature checks for all students as they enter, and recommending the uses of non-medical grade mask for all students.
A: In the case that local or national health regulations change to recommend the re-implementation of redistricted gatherings then Kamen STEM will notify all enrolled about the changes we will be making to our classes. If our In-Person classes transition online or get canceled, then all enrolled students will receive the option of a full refund, or credit for our other classes.
A: Students may receive a full refund (minus credit card transaction fees) up to three weeks before the class starts. if a student cancels between 1-3 weeks before the camp starts student will receive a partial refund as at this point, we will have started purchasing supplies. This refund will vary based on the camp, however a refund at this point will be approximately 50-75% of the original price. Cancellation within one week of the camp will result in a limited refund as many of the supplies for that camp will have been purchased at this point.
