IMPORTANT: Enrolling in this coaching program does not guarantee a spot in our school year coaching schedule. To secure a slot for the fall, students must be on our waiting list. Please note that this program and our summer coaching are completely separate. Additionally, summer sessions do not apply as credit toward the school year coaching package, which requires separate enrollment and payment.
