Refunds
Parents will be billed and are 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 4, 2020, minus the $150 nonrefundable deposit. Full refunds are only issued if a program is canceled by WIS due to insufficient enrollment. No refunds will be issued for any cancellations after May 4, 2020. Make-up days are not available.
Adjustments to Schedules
Cancellations will only be accepted until May 4, 2020. 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 4. Transfers between programs are possible at all times provided space is available. All changes must be made in writing using an “Adjustment to Enrollment” form, which you can obtain by contacting us at summercamp@wis.edu or 202-243-1791.
Camper Behavior
Campers are expected to behave appropriately at all times. 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.
Staff
WIS Summer Camp is a diverse community. Teachers, counselors, and administrative staff come from many different cultures and countries across the globe. Team members are selected for their enthusiasm, experience, and unswerving commitment to providing a safe, challenging, and nurturing environment. Many of them are year-round WIS faculty, current WIS students, or alumni.
