Dear Parents,

All classes take place on Mondays in my central Lakeland home. Class size is limited thus a $25 non-refundable deposit is due to register your student. The remaining payment is due within the first few weeks of class. Please note that the Creative Writing classes listed below are for 2023 and will not begin registration until December. If you are interested in enrolling your student, please respond by email at homeschoolinghelpswithkathy@gmail.com
I will contact you to verify class availability and give you payment information. Class size is limited; be sure to contact me soon if you are interested.
