Each session is 1 hour long.
Each class includes one or a set of objectives that target the acquisition of a specific structure and focus on the active “reproduction” of the language.
The children will gradually combine vocabulary and structures and learn how to use some of them. From the beginning, the students will learn how to form simple sentences (questions and answers) through small role-plays. Active role-plays will encourage the children to listen, ask and answer simple questions. All the classes are connected to each other and act as “building blocks”. We review old elements and recombine them with new ones, gradually forming new and more complex sentence incorporating broader vocabulary.
Our native-speakers instructors focus on active listening and repetition (with emphasis on correct pronunciation) and speaking. The Language Program uses an age-appropriate Spanish method as one of the tools for learning the language.

ENROLLMENT AND TUITION FEES
Families are required to pay a deposit to hold their spot. The deposit equals to one month tuition fees and is not refundable. This deposit is due by August 11 for Spanish classes.
CLS fees are calculated for the school year by counting ONLY the days school is open. Tuition is the same every month regardless of the number of program days in each month. Tuition is calculated for the school year program and billed in ten equal monthly installments, starting August 1st, 2024, through April 1, 2025. CLS does not bill on a per diem basis or prorate the month if your child is absent. CLS offers financial aid to families that aren't able to pay the full price.

WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PROGRAM
We require a 30-day notice to withdraw from the program. Thus, parents are not responsible for any other payment if the withdrawal form is submitted within this time frame. Withdrawals can be made using this link.
WHAT's NEW TO CLS FOR SCHOOL YEAR 2024-2025?
We heard you!
CLS will have a new registration portal, starting in July 2024. Some of the benefits of this new portal will be:
- Enroll and un-enroll (with 30-day notice)
- Get immediate access to receipts and statements (including our EIN number)
- Enroll in camps
- Get notifications
- Send messages through the app (which you will be able to download on your phone). Messages can be seen by our coordinators in real time.
It is going to be a great improvement that CLS are making so families can enjoy a user-friendly process!
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU HAVE PAID THE DEPOSIT?
Families that have paid the deposit through the website will be notified to create an account on the portal and to complete a simple registration form by July 31st, as well as setting up a recurring payment. The recurring payments will start August 1st, 2024, for the month of September, which will include the last week in August. The recurring payments will end in April 1, 2025, covering May (2025) tuition fees. Your deposit will apply to June 2025. If you have more questions regarding CLS Fees, please refer to our Parent Handbook.
Please note that if you are a current family and pay the deposit through the portal in July, your child will not be able to start before September 2024.
