Educational Excellence for a Changing Tomorrow

Community Education

Community Education

Never stop growing!  Our Community Education programs bring lifelong learning directly to you.  From arts and cooking to technology, safety and financial wellness, our courses draw on the rich expertise of local businesses, organizations and passion-driven individuals.

We love fresh ideas!  If you have a topic you’re eager to teach or a skill to pass on, contact Jenny Schafer at schafejl@chipfalls.org to become an instructor.

Refund and Cancellation Policy

    • If you enroll for a class and it is canceled, you will be fully refunded. 
    • If you cancel your class enrollment 14 days prior to the start of class, you will be fully refunded excluding credit card fees. 
    • If you cancel your class fewer than 14 days to the start of the class, you will NOT be refunded. 
  • If the CFAUSD Schools are closed or canceled during the day, all evening activities will also be canceled, even if the weather has cleared by the time your class is to start.  If school is in session, but the weather looks questionable, please email us adulted@chipfalls.org or call us at 715-726-2416.  If classes are canceled, we will make every attempt to contact registered participants via phone and/or email messages.  If classes have to be rescheduled, we will do so according to the instructor's convenience.

    • If the trip must be canceled due to inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances (e.g., mechanical issues, emergency closures), every effort will be made to reschedule or provide a partial refund.
    • Please note that we are unable to refund costs for tickets or admissions that were pre-purchased and are non-refundable, such as theater, museum, or event tickets.
    • In such cases, participants will receive a refund only for the portion of the trip not already spent on prepaid costs.
