Please note: Due to the Coronavirus Public Health crisis, we have put in place strict safety protocols.
​This means enrollment in our programs is currently extremely limited, and enrollment can only be completed by speaking to a staff member on the phone.

Important Notes
Bitty City Players is an inclusive community and we believe strongly that providing equal access to children of diverse needs and abilities enriches the experience of every student.

If your child needs additional support, for instance he/she has an IEP, please let us know in advance and we will work with you to ensure your child will have adequate support for their needs in Afterschool. We welcome SEITs and aides in our classroom. If Bitty City Players determines that it is not possible to provide the necessary support, your tuition will be refunded.

We are seeking to become an ACS affiliate which will allow us to accept ACS and HRA vouchers, but it is a slow process. Consequently we regret that we are unable to accept vouchers for this school year - but we will keep you updated. A monthly installment payment plan is available on our registration page at no additional charge.
​
​Bitty City Players Afterschool tuition is tax-deductible for parents who need childcare to enable them to work or to attend school.
