COVID-19 Cancellation Policy

for Weekly Nature School, Wild Life Forest Preschool, Tracks and Trails

With what is currently known about the spread of COVID-19 and the fact that all of Earth Native's programs operate 100% outdoors in small groups of 10 or less people (with the exception of WLFP with a 16:2 ratio) we think that it is unlikely that the school will have to shut down again during the school year.

 

However, should that be necessary, and we are unable to provide in-person programming, the school will shift temporarily to at-home distance learning with the goal of helping our youth students to become inspired to go outside, explore nature, and work on projects at home. If there is a pause to our in-person programming we will allow any families who do not want to participate in the at-home programming to opt out and receive a partial refund for that portion of the school year. For these opt-out families, those who have already paid their tuition in full, will receive a partial refund and families who are enrolled in the payment plan, will receive a partial credit that will be applied to the invoice they are paying on. Refund and credit amounts for opt-out families will be based on the total number of missed in-person classes.
