How do I know if my class is canceled?

Occasionally due to unforeseen circumstances, Smith Vocational Adult Community Education must cancel a class. Canceled classes are made up (same day of week and time) by extending the finish date of the course unless other arrangements are made between the instructor and the class and approved by the director. When day school is canceled due to snow conditions or other weather or emergency events, evening classes are also canceled. Look for the Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School cancellation notices on the following stations: WWLP-TV Springfield Channel 22 and WGGB-TV Springfield Channel 40.

​

In the event day classes are not canceled and the weather worsens, if a decision to cancel evening classes is made, it will be relayed to the same stations by 4 pm. (If evening classes are going to be held as usual, there will be no notice).

​

What is your refund policy?

1. All tuition for a course must be paid in full prior to the start date of the course.

​

2. If a class is canceled for any reason by Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School all monies collected up to that point shall be fully refunded.

​

3. If an enrolled student terminates before the scheduled start of class, they shall receive a refund of all monies collected, minus a 10% administrative fee of the total cost of the course, whether or not the full tuition has been collected at the time of the student's cancellation.

​

4. If an enrolled student terminates their enrollment after the start of the class, they shall forfeit the right to any refund.
