FAQ

Thrive offers rolling admission so that you can enroll your child when it best suits your schedule! We do not run sessions, meaning your child can remain enrolled with us for as long as you like. Thrive bills on a monthly schedule. Our billing date is the 25th of the month before. If at any time you need to end your child's enrollment, you must notify Thrive by the 15th of the month before.

If the class times that work best for your schedule are currently full, we recommend placing your child on the waitlist. You can do this directly through our registration page. Because Thrive offers rolling admission, we will reach out to the waitlist first to offer spots as they become available.

If your child is registered for a Ninja Zone class with us, you can purchase their Ninja shirt through the front desk.

Thrive offers a flexible makeup policy. If your child needs to miss a class for any reason, give us a call at 410-995-8130. Our front desk staff can assist in arranging a makeup class for your child. Makeups can be done in any other section of your child's same class. Makeups must be prescheduled, and your child is eligible for a makeup up to 30 days from the date of their absence.

All of our programs utilize rigorous curriculum intended to create a learning environment that fosters opportunities for creativity, personal challenge, and fun! Each class has a set of core skills around which our curriculum is written. Lesson plans rotate out each month, keeping students engaged with new drills aimed at developing these core skills.

Every ten weeks Thrive hosts a progression week, during which your child's skill report will be made available to you through your parent portal. Their skill report is a snapshot of their progress on all of their class's core skills. Once your child has mastered 80-90% of these core skills, your child's instructor may prompt you that it is time for your child to move up to the next level. You can always check in with your child's instructor or our front desk staff to receive an update about your child's progress!
