The New School Programs will be up by Sept 15th

Contact:
Sally Hill at (203) 777.1833 to book a program or email her at sh@eliwhitney.org

Group Size:
Most programs can be structured to accommodate a team of up to 100 children; The minimum charge per group is $120

Availability:
Our Fall schedule is much more flexible than the Winter or Spring. If your group can come after noon, we can almost always give you your first choice of date.

If you don't see it here:
This Brochure shows only 45 of the 100+ projects we will teach this year. We modify and invent projects to your specifications. Call wit your needs.

Time:
We design our programs for 1.5 hours. We can abbreviate them to accommodate problems with bus schedules. Occasionally your group may overlap the work of another group. If your group can come after noon, we can almost always give you your first choice of date.

Double Programs / Full Day Programs:
Many schools request longer programs to combine program elements or to develop projects. Costs rise proportionally.

Lunch:
There is space for lunch outside (weather permitting); space for lunch can be arranged inside in most cases.

Weather:
We follow the Winter Storm closing decisions of the Hamden Public Schools.

Chaperones:
We do not specify a minimum number of chaperones. There is no fee for chaperones.
We do ask that you prepare chaperones to actively support the programs, more broadly
than just with their own children. When we ask that students wear safety goggles,
parents and teachers must also wear safety goggles.

Smoking:
Ours is a No Smoking Site. We ask your chaperones and bus drivers to respect this heath and safety rule.

Cancellations:
If your group must cancel for any reason (other than a snow day), please notify us immediately so that we can avoid charging you a setup fee of $75.
