Classes begin on Tuesday, August 4, 2020. Following the lead by Laredo’s public school system, all children’s classes will be held using a live, on-line platform for six weeks. Adults have the option of joining our in-person classes in which we abide by the state of Texas COVID-19 guidelines or you may opt to join us via an on-line platform.
