Policies
Last updated: June 2026
Beyond Young Academy is a community art-and-academics academy for children Pre-K through Grade 5 at 374 Millburn Avenue, Millburn, NJ. These operational policies help us maintain a safe, structured, and welcoming environment for all our students and families.
Attendance
Regular attendance is encouraged to get the most out of each program. If your child will miss a session, please notify us as soon as possible by email or phone so we can plan accordingly.
Students arriving more than 15 minutes late may not be admitted to that session for the safety and continuity of the class.
Pick-up must be arranged by the enrolled parent or guardian, or an authorized adult listed at enrollment. Unplanned pick-up by an unlisted adult requires prior written authorization from the parent.
Make-Up Sessions
Each enrolled student is entitled to one make-up session per term per enrolled class, subject to availability in a comparable class. Make-ups must be requested in advance and scheduled within the same term. Make-up sessions do not carry over between terms and have no cash value.
Make-up sessions are available for student illness or family emergencies. We cannot offer make-ups for scheduling conflicts or vacations.
Refunds
See the Withdrawal & Refund Policy in our Terms of Enrollment for full details. In brief:
- Full refund (less $50 admin fee) within the first 2 weeks of a program.
- Pro-rated refund with 2 weeks' written notice after the 2-week window.
- Registration fees are non-refundable once the school year begins.
- Bus fees are non-refundable once the school year begins.
Multi-Class Discount
When you enroll two or more fall classes in the same checkout, a discount applies automatically to your class tuition:
- 2 classes: 5% off class tuition
- 3 classes: 10% off class tuition
- 4 or more classes: 15% off class tuition
The discount applies to class tuition only and does not apply to bus, registration, or processing fees.
Health and Safety
Please disclose any relevant allergies, medical conditions, or special needs at enrollment. We ask that parents keep children home when they are ill (fever, contagious illness) to protect other students and staff.
BY Academy staff are not licensed medical providers and cannot administer prescription medications. Emergency epinephrine (EpiPen) or over-the-counter medication may be administered in an emergency in accordance with NJ state guidelines, provided a signed form is on file.
Photography and Social Media
We photograph and occasionally video-record students during classes and events for use in our marketing materials, website, and social media. You may opt in or out of this at enrollment. Your preference is respected; please contact us if you wish to change it. We do not post images that identify individual students by full name without explicit consent.
Lost and Found
Please label your child's belongings. Unclaimed items are held for 2 weeks and then donated. BY Academy is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged personal property.
