KIDS Are TOPS Snow Closing Policy:

KIDS Are TOPS Sports Center is located in Centerville, Ohio and has the following winter weather closing policy:

If Centerville City Schools are open even though they may delay the start of the school day then KIDS Are TOPS will be open all day for normal classes.

If Centerville City Schools are cancelled for the full day then KIDS Are TOPS will cancel only the morning classes and all afternoon and evening classes will be held.

The above closing schedule is automatic and will always be followed so we will not call it in to radio or television stations.

If conditions are severe enough for TOPS to close afternoon and evening classes, a recorded message will be available on our regular telephone number 937-435-7626 and we will call a closing announcement into ABC 22, FOX 45, NBC Channel 2, WHIO Channel 7 and 1290 AM radio.

Safety Policies

  Please Be On Time! The class warm-up period is an essential part of any sports activity. At KIDS Are TOPS, our instructors ask that all children arrive early for class. Classes will begin promptly on time with important warm-up activities, including flexibility and stretching exercises to prepare the muscles.

  When students arrive for class, they should remain in their designated waiting areas until called for class. Students should wait near the entry to their respective gyms. Swimming students will be called inside to the pool deck 3 minutes prior to their class.

  Students are NOT ALLOWED in any of the instruction areas or on the equipment at any time unless they are enrolled in the class and the instructor is present.

  Please help us keep KIDS Are TOPS a safe place by watching young children and siblings closely.

  Parents should pick children up inside the building. If a parent is going to be late, please call KIDS Are TOPS (937-435-7626) so we can have their child wait in the office area. No children will be allowed to wait outside for pick-up.

  Please do not leave valuables unattended. We provide open storage space for clothes. However we can not be responsible for lost or stolen items.

Payment Policies

  Payments for classes are due at the time of Registration. This enables us to keep a more accurate count of how many students are enrolled for each class without overbooking classes.

  There is a $30 Registration Fee per student (or $50 Family Registration Fee) that is also to be paid when you enroll and must be renewed every September. One Family Registration Fee applies to ALL programs at KIDS Are TOPS! This non-returnable fee covers the cost of registering and maintaining your family in our records.

  There is a 10% Discount for each additional member of the immediate family or each additional class per student calculated on the lower priced class(es) for all programs at KIDS Are TOPS! This does not include private lessons.

  Monthly tuition is due by the 1st of the month. A $10 late fee will be added to all monthly tuition not paid by the 12th of each month. If payment is not made by the 1st of the following month, that class spot may be given to the next child on the waiting list.

  Our monthly tuition is based on a four-week month. No additional charge is assessed for months that offer five classes. In the months where holidays (or gym closings, snow days, etc.) affect the schedule of classes, no tuition is reduced.

  Make your checks payable to KIDS Are TOPS and please note the student's name, the program, class day and the time on the memo portion of your check. A $25 fee (and any additional court costs if necessary) will be assessed on all returned checks.

  For your convenience, we also accept Visa, MasterCard and Discover credit cards.

  Tuition is not prorated for absences. Please see the class Make-Up Policies.

  You may mail payment to KIDS Are TOPS Sports Center, 7644 Paragon Road, Centerville, OH 45459.

Make-Up Policies

  KIDS Are TOPS allows and encourages make-up classes for illness, however we must be notified at least an hour in advance of absence for make-ups to be allowed. If we are not given at least one hour notice you will be charged for the class and cannot make it up. Please notify us by phone (937-435-7626) and not by e-mail or fax.

  Limit 2 make-up classes per quarter or session. All make-ups must be scheduled in advance. KIDS Are TOPS reserves the right to turn away unscheduled make-ups. Make-ups may not be carried over from one quarter or session to another.

  No credits or refunds will be given for classes not made up.

Cancellation Policy

  We hate to see you go but we realize that everyone will eventually grow up and move on. As a courtesy, we ask parents for a two week notice before the end of the month if their child is going to discontinue classes at KIDS Are TOPS. This is so we can invite the next child on the waiting list to join the class the following month. Please Note: If two week written notice is not given, you will be billed for an additional two weeks.

If you are ever not 100% satisfied for any reason with your experience at KIDS Are TOPS PLEASE let us know so we may continue to offer the best programs possible.
