Classes are first-come, first-serve. Get those forms in quickly! It is recommended that you turn completed forms in to the MAIN OFFICE rather than to your child’s teacher.
 
If you need a scholarship, you must call the Community Education office to discuss options or your child will not be registered. Scholarships are available, but forms turned in without payment will not be processed until you have spoken with the Coordinator about your request for a scholarship - 612.668.4964.
 
We will send home a confirmation letter when your child is officially enrolled in activities. Do not send your child to activities unless s/he has received a confirmation. If you have any questions please call Seward Community Ed office during office hours (10:00am - 1:00pm Monday and Wednesday).
