A NOTE TO OUR CUSTOMERS
March 26, 2020In response to the news that Shakopee Public Schools has extended distance learning through April 30, all Community Education classes and activities that start before May 4 will be cancelled, with the exception of a few classes which we are currently working to offer an online option for as well as Driver's Education, which will be rescheduled. You will be notified individually if you are enrolled in one of those classes.
We will be refunding your enrollment fee (pro-rated for classes or sessions that were already in session) for the class or activity that was cancelled. If a class or session extends beyond May 4, the entire session has been cancelled and accounts will be refunded accordingly.
We thank you for your understanding as we navigate this uncertain time. Please reach out to us if you have questions. We appreciate you choosing Shakopee Community Education, and look forward to seeing you in class once things return to normal. Meanwhile, we hope you are able to embrace the slower pace and enjoy some time with your family.
