Frequently Asked Questions about our Trial Day
Q: Is it mandatory to attend this Trial Day to enroll in the 2026-27 school year?
A: No, not at all! This is completely optional. We will offer a Parent Orientation at the beginning of the school year, which will include all of the major logistics points for new families.
​
Q: What are the hours?
A: We ask that you drop your child/ren off at 9:30am and then return at 2:30pm for the Parent Info Session.
Q: I am interested in your Monthly Program or another program. Is it ok to attend?
A: This Trial Day is for those interested in our WILD OUTSIDE only. If you are interested in one of our other programs, we recommend you try out our programs via one of our weekend classes (FYI, weekend classes often fill rather quickly, so grab a spot as soon as possible).
Q: I can’t make it on March 25th. Is there another day my kids can attend?
A: We only hold one Trial Day for Wild Outside each year. If you cannot make it to the Trial Day on March 25th and would like your child to check out our programs, we recommend signing them up for one of our one-day Weekend Classes or even a Summer Camp.
Q: How quickly does your program fill if I decide to enroll?
A: While it is impossible to know exactly how enrollment will play out, in prior years, spots in our Wild Outside program have filled quickly. Friday is usually the most popular program day, and usually, we have very few spots left after the priority enrollment period for our current families. We will have the exact number of open spots available to share with you on the Trial Day, or feel free to email us anytime to ask.
We always recommend enrolling immediately once you are sure you would like your child to attend our program. Please note that the $300 registration fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. In the past, the majority of the spots were gone in the first few days, and many programs filled within minutes of registration opening. We will open enrollment for the 2026-27 program on Monday, March 30, at 9 a.m.
We have a lot of movement in the programs in the first few days/weeks/months, so we recommend getting on the wait list if your desired day is full. Usually, those who join the waitlist early on get a space in the program. It is also possible to join a different program day that has open spots and get on the waitlist for your preferred day. We will reach out to you to ask if you'd like to switch to the waitlist day at no additional cost should a spot open up for you.
