Absolutely! Parents are always welcome to stay and observe, especially during the first few weeks if it helps your child feel comfortable. While many students settle in quickly and enjoy the independence of the program, we value family involvement and want parents to feel welcome in our community.

Our programs are tuition-based rather than pay-per-class. Because staffing, supplies, and class sizes are planned in advance, tuition remains the same regardless of absences. We are unable to offer make-up days or refunds for missed classes.

Tuition at Red Rock Nature School is based on the full cost of each program session and divided into equal monthly installments for convenient payment. The monthly tuition amount is not based on the number of class days that fall within a particular month.Explorers: $200/monthPathfinders: $200/monthAll Things Fishing: $160/monthRegistration FeeA $75 registration fee is required once per child, per session. This fee is per child—not per program.If your child enrolls in more than one Red Rock Nature School program during the same session, you will only pay one $75 registration fee for that child.For example, a child enrolled in both Explorers and All Things Fishing for the same session pays one $75 registration fee, not two.Tuition PolicyEnrollment reserves your child’s place in the program for the full session. Because tuition is divided into equal monthly installments, your monthly payment remains the same even when the number of scheduled class days varies from month to month.Monthly tuition is due in full regardless of scheduled days off, holidays, family vacations, illness, student absences, weather-related closures, or other missed program days. Tuition is not calculated or prorated based on individual attendance.Your tuition payment secures your child’s enrollment and reserved place in the program for the session, rather than paying for individual class days.

All registration fees and tuition payments are non-refundable.Enrollment in Red Rock Nature School reserves a limited space for your child for the selected program and session. Because we plan staffing, materials, programming, and program availability based on confirmed enrollment, registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable once paid.Tuition is also non-refundable and is due in full according to the agreed payment schedule, regardless of attendance. Refunds, credits, make-up days, or prorated tuition will not be provided for:Student absences, illness, vacations, or scheduling conflictsA family's decision to withdraw after enrollmentHolidays or scheduled program breaksWeather-related closuresUnsafe outdoor conditions, including extreme heat, storms, poor air quality, or other circumstances that require us to modify or cancel programming for the safety of students and staffOther circumstances outside of Red Rock Nature School's reasonable control Monthly tuition payments are installments toward the total tuition for the enrolled session, rather than payment for a specific number of class days in a particular month. The monthly amount therefore remains the same even when the number of scheduled program days varies from month to month.Monthly enrollments may be canceled at any time with two weeks' written notice. Tuition already paid is non-refundable, and families remain responsible for any tuition due during the two-week notice period. This policy allows us to plan staffing, materials, and programming while maintaining consistent class sizes for all students.If Red Rock Nature School permanently cancels a program or is unable to provide the remainder of an enrolled session, any refund or credit for services not provided will be determined by Red Rock Nature School.By completing registration and submitting payment, families acknowledge and agree to this Registration, Tuition & Refund Policy.

Our classes are designed to embrace the outdoors in all seasons. We continue to meet in most weather conditions, adapting activities as needed. In cases of severe or unsafe weather, families will be notified if a class needs to be rescheduled or relocated.

Our programs are designed for children ages 5–16, with age-appropriate activities and instruction tailored to each program.

Not at all! Beginners are always welcome. Whether your child is new to outdoor skills or already has experience, our instructors meet students where they are and help them build confidence, practical life skills, and a love for learning outdoors.

Yes. Students participate independently under the supervision of our instructors. However, parents are always welcome to stay, observe, or participate if they'd like—especially while their child is getting comfortable. Our goal is to create a welcoming community where families feel connected as their children grow in confidence and independence.
