Who can register?
Registration in Community Education adult classes is open to anyone in grade 7 or up unless otherwise noted.
Non-residents of Acton-Boxborough are welcome, and are assessed a $4 out of town fee per class.
Registrations
Unless otherwise indicated, registrations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis right up until the start of a class (and even sometimes after a class has begun). Payment is required at the time of registration. To avoid disappointment, contact Community Education to determine if a class has been filled or canceled. Students are advised to register early as under-enrolled classes will be canceled.
In the event that you are wait listed for a class, you will be contacted if/when an opening becomes available.
Students who register online will receive a receipt/confirmation via email. Students who phone/mail/fax in a registration should consider themselves enrolled unless notified otherwise. If you would like a receipt, please request it on your registration form and we will email one to you.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
Full refunds are given if either of the following occur:
• the class is canceled due to low enrollment
• the course requested is already full
Class withdrawals must be received at least 2 full business days prior to the class start date to receive a 90% refund, unless otherwise stated on the class description.
No other refunds will be granted.
Senior Citizens
Persons age 62 and older may take a Community Education course for 1/2 price, unless otherwise noted in the description. This discount does not apply to bus trips, rental equipment, or supplies.
Class Cancellations
If the public schools are closed, or if there is an early release due to inclement weather, all Comm. Ed. classes held in district buildings are canceled, including evening classes. If your class is held at a local business or partner location, call there to confirm if class will be held.
Cancellations will be posted on our website and there will also be a voice message at our office (978-266-2525). We will try to reschedule the missed class.
Miscellaneous
Community Education will cancel any course with insufficient enrollment and refund tuition in full. Community Ed reserves the right to provide a qualified substitute teacher in the event that the teacher listed in the brochure/website is unable to fulfill his/her teaching assignment.
