Before the program begins, a refund may be granted without justification. After the program has started, a prorated refund may be granted only for a major medical reason or a move, with supporting documents. All program prices include a non-refundable $25 administrative fee.

No refund, credit, or make-up lesson will be offered for any missed class, regardless of the reason.

The Snow School reserves the right to modify the schedule or cancel and reschedule a lesson. In case of a weather-related cancellation, the missed class will automatically be added at the end of the 8-week program on an additional Saturday or Sunday. It is possible that more than one class may be rescheduled in the same season.

When a lesson is postponed, access to the ski lifts is extended, to include the weekend to which the course is postponed.

If a lesson is postponed but the ski lifts remain operational, the student still has access to the lifts for the entire weekend, in addition to the weekend to which the course is postponed.
