Classes are held Sunday mornings from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM from September 8, 2024 to May 4, 2025. Holidays are noted on the calendar, which is attached to this form and is available on www.atadc.org. Throughout the school year, we will enforce health requirements mandated by the Fairfax County School System which will be communicated to the students and their parents as needed. 

Students, as young as 5 to 12 years old, may register by September 1, 2024.  Additional students may be accepted through September 30, 2024 provided that classes are not full. Status of classroom opening can be requested from the school administrators provided below. Students are given a proficiency test at the first day of school to properly assign them to classes. Typically, Beginner I, Beginner II, Level 1, classes are available for students based on the level of the students. Students are expected to maintain appropriate classroom behavior and follow teacher instructions. Depending upon the class sizes, we may ask for rotating parent volunteers to assist in classroom management.

Students will be allowed 1-2 breaks, depending upon class level. Breaks allow teachers to prepare for the continuing lessons, and allow students to have a snack, use the facilities and/or, time- and weather-permitting, play on the playground. Parents are responsible for providing snacks, which may only be consumed in the cafeteria or outside. Parents are responsible for cleaning up after snack time. During breaks, parents must supervise their children, whether inside or outside, at all times.

The School employs well educated and highly experienced teachers to ensure students receive high-quality education.

Tuition is based on facility rental costs; cost of teacher salaries and any class supplies and materials.  ATA-DC conducts fundraising activities throughout the year to supplement tuition as necessary to cover School costs.
