Refunds
Families will be billed and expected to pay for all services indicated on the registration contract whether or not the service has been used. Refunds will be issued for cancellations (from parents or guardians only, please) received in writing before May 15, minus the $150 non-refundable registration fee. Full refunds are only issued if a program is canceled

Adjustments to Schedules
Changes to program selections or dates will only be accepted until May 15. If space is available, additional weeks or services may be added to the enrollment contract throughout the summer, but none may be subtracted after May 15. All changes must be made in writing using an “Adjustment to Enrollment” form, available by calling WIS at (202) 243-1791.

Student Behavior and Safety
Students are expected to behave appropriately at all times according to the guidelines explained in the camp code of conduct. In matters relating to safety, conduct, and discipline on campus and during camp-sponsored activities, the faculty and staff will act in the place of parents and guardians. WIS reserves the right to exclude a camper temporarily or permanently if it deems this to be in the best interest of the camp or camper.

There will be no refund as a result of a camper’s expulsion. If no individual listed on the Emergency Medical Treatment Form can be reached during a medical emergency, WIS personnel will take appropriate action in accordance with other information provided on the form, which must be completed and submitted with the Registration Form.
