FAQs



Pre-Registration

Q:

I'm brand new. How do I join Connections?

A:

The information you'll need to know before you join will be in the Pre-Registration FAQs. Then click on "Join" at the top of the page and request membership!

Q:

Who may register?

A:

Students may enroll in any Connections class if they are homeschooled. Students who also participate in a public school/parent partnership like Northshore Networks or the HEE are also welcome to attend. Likewise, students who have been previously homeschooled and are concurrently enrolled in Running Start are eligible for Connections’ classes.

Connections Guidelines
All families who register agree to abide by the guidelines in the Family Guide, and be respectful of the Statement of Faith and Beliefs while on campus, regardless of their religious or non-religious affiliation.  A New Family FAQ download  and General Questions are available as well. Our Fees Policy explains the payment process for all fees. Finally, in order to ensure that Connections runs smoothly, every family at Connections is required to perform a job while on-site. 

Q:

When does registration happen?

A:

Registration for the following school year opens shortly after spring break, and closes July 1. Registration opens again on August 1, and remains open throughout the school year. New families may join at any time for the current year until March 1. The expectation is that enrollment commitments are for the entire school year, no matter when a student joins a class.

Q:

What classes are available?

A:

All current class offerings, including descriptions and prerequisites are listed on the main website, as well as under Class Registration in the registration site. Note that we meet both Mondays and Wednesdays, but that each class meets just once per week, with the exception of Beginning Band. All classes have an age range (age as of the first day of classes), rather than a grade level. 

Waitlist
Some of our classes are full, but you are more than welcome to place yourself on the waitlist. Being on the waitlist does not commit you to enrolling and paying for the class should an opening become available. 

 

Q:

What are forums and classifieds?

A:

Forums are a way for Connections families to ask questions and have discussions with other Connections families. You are not required to participate in these forums, however, when you join Connections, you will be asked how you want to receive notices for these forums. You may change your options later, but you'll need to select something to complete your registration form. 

Instructors may also use forums to communicate their students. Class forums will only be visible to the members of the class.

We also have a classifieds forum to post items for sale or in search of. You will also need to choose if you would like to see these posts and how often.
