• How may I contact a Community Schools Site Coordinator?
  Contact information for Community Schools Site Coordinators is available here. For fastest service, send them an e-mail. They are only available at the phone number listed during class hours of 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.
  
• In what room will my class be held?
  When you arrive at the school where your class is being held, there will be a list posted near the entrance showing the room number for your class. There will also be an employee, called a Site Coordinator, there to give you directions to find your classroom.

• What is the refund policy?
  Contact the individual instructor or agency that is listed in the course description for their specific refund policy. In general, a class will be canceled if the number of participants does not meet the minimum number required by the instructor or agency. In such cases, checks will be returned to participants.

  Refunds are issued by the Agency or Instructor, not the Lifelong Learning Program.
  
• How do I determine who is the Agent for the class for which I want to register?
  At the bottom of each course description in the Expand catalog is a listing for "Agency." This listing indicates the participating agency or instructor. When registering for a class, tuition checks should be made payable to the person or institution listed.
  
• There is severe weather; will my class be held?
  School System personnel closely monitor the weather forecasts and conditions. Any announcement of evening classes being cancelled will be made through the main Wake County Public School System website at www.wcpss.net. The local media will also be notified.

  Please remember that if no announcement is made, evening classes will be held on their normal schedule.
  
• How do I register for a course?
