Students will be provided with access to myUSM where they will meet with teachers for face-to-face instruction during the scheduled session using Google Meet. Directions on how to access your classes will be provided to families prior to the start of each week.

In the event that USM cancels a program, a full refund will be issued. Summer program refunds will be processed around the 15th of the month in July, August, and September.

All student-elected cancellations will be assessed a $5 fee per class for Summer IDEAS online classes. For all programs, except Upper School credit courses, if notice is received at least 14 calendar days before a program begins, the tuition paid will be refunded except in the event that the cancellation is for a class that has a waiting list. In this case, a refund will be issued only if a replacement registrant is found. If notice is received fewer than 14 calendar days before a program is scheduled to begin, a credit will be given toward additional programming for the student or a sibling during the current summer program; there will be no cash refund.

Students changing classes or weeks of participation will be charged a $5 change fee per adjustment plus any additional charges that apply to the replacement program selected. There are no additional administrative fees for adding new programs. Those programs will be charged at the published rate.

Appropriate student behavior is expected. If a student’s behavior makes it difficult for others to learn and enjoy their experiences or for teachers to teach, the Director of Summer Programs reserves the right to discuss the situation with the student and parents, and if a remedy cannot be initiated, to require the student to withdraw from the program with a pro rata refund.
