Welcome to the KaiPod Scottsdale Learning Pod

ESA
KaiPod Learning is an approved ESA (Empowerment Scholarship Account) vendor. We accept ESA debit cards and direct pay via the ClassWallet vendor marketplace. We can also provide receipts for reimbursement.

Open Door Policy
At KaiPod Learning, we recognize that all students are unique and learn in different ways. Thus, we are committed to giving students the flexibility they need to maximize their learning experience. For this reason, KaiPod Learning operates on an “open door” basis. Each student may come as frequently or infrequently as they wish based on their enrolled plan. Students may come for a whole day, a partial day, or for various brief intervals throughout the course of a single day. It’s your choice. We are here to offer support when and if your student needs it.

Standard Enrollment Days
The standard enrollment days for our part-time enrollment plans are listed below. We are able to accommodate alternate days based on availability!

• 2 Day Plan: Tuesday and Thursday

• 3 Day Plan: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday

• 4 Day Plan: Monday through Thursday
  

One Semester Commitment
All KaiPod Learning enrollment plans require a one-semester commitment. This policy ensures stability and consistency for both students and the KaiPod Learning community. Semester 1 begins with the local KaiPod calendar (typically August or September) and ends on December 31st. Semester 2 starts on January 1st and ends on the last day of the local KaiPod calendar. Students who join after the school year begins are committed to a standard one-semester timeframe or a 5-month period. Withdrawal before the end of the semester commitment is not permitted after the 30-Day Happiness Guarantee period ends. Families cannot make any changes to their child’s enrollment plan during the one-semester commitment, including upgrades, downgrades, or changes in attendance days. After the one-semester commitment, families may upgrade, downgrade, or terminate their enrollment plan with 30 days' written notice.

One Month Happiness Guarantee
At KaiPod Learning, we want to ensure every family feels confident in their decision to join our community. That’s why we offer a 30-day Happiness Guarantee. This guarantee gives families the chance to experience KaiPod Learning risk-free while ensuring we’re the best fit for your child’s educational journey. Families have 30 days from their enrollment start date to determine if KaiPod Learning is the right fit for them. During this period, our team also assesses whether we can effectively meet your child’s needs. Due to the flexible attendance policies of our program, the 30-day period begins on the first available date of enrollment as selected in the enrollment form, not your child’s first day of attendance. The first payment of the chosen payment schedule is nonrefundable and must be paid in full at the time of enrollment. If written notice of cancellation is received within the 30-day Happiness Guarantee period, the one-semester commitment is waived. After the 30-day Happiness Guarantee period ends, families are locked into the one-semester commitment and the remaining tuition.

Payment Plans
For the 2025-2026 school year, KaiPod Learning offers three flexible payment schedules with discounts for semester and annual payments. All plans are based on the local 180-day academic year calendar and are prorated if a student enrolls mid-year.

• 10 Payments Plan: The annual tuition is divided into 10 equal installments, due on the 1st of each month from August to May.

• 2 Payments Plan (5% Discount): The annual tuition is divided into 2 equal installments with a 5% discount applied, due on August 1st and January 1st. Please note that no refunds are provided if a family downgrades their plan or withdraws before the end of the semester.

• 1 Payment Plan (10% Discount): Annual tuition is paid in one lump sum with a 10% discount applied, due on August 1st. Please note that no refunds are provided if a family downgrades their plan or withdraws before the end of the academic year.
  

Sibling Discounts
KaiPod Learning offers sibling discounts! Sibling discounts are applied automatically to the least expensive plan for children in the same household, as follows:

• First Child: Full Tuition

• Second Child: 10% Discount

• Third Child: 15% Discount

• Fourth+ Child: 20% Discount
  

No Refunds or Makeup Days
Due to KaiPod Learning’s Open Door Policy, families are charged their selected payment plan fee regardless of student attendance. As such, no credits, prorated discounts, makeup days, or refunds are provided for sick days, missed days, vacation days, calendar holidays, or half-days.
