IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING 2012
PRESQUE ISLE FIELD STUDIES CLASSES:
Due to the overwhelming popularity of Presque Isle Field Studies classes and to allow us to provide this unique opportunity to the maximum number of participants, the registration process for this program has changed in that priority consideration will be given to children who have not previously participated. In addition:
- PAPER REGISTRATIONS ONLY will be accepted – on-line registration is not available for this class!
- The paper registration MUST INCLUDE a one- or two-paragraph essay written by the child explaining why they want to attend the class. Submission of the essay must be accompanied by paper registration and not sent separately. Paper registrations will be available mid-April.
- Parents will be notified of their child’s enrollment status via e-mail, so please be sure to provide your e-mail address.
Please note that no exceptions will be made to this procedure. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
