In this class, young artists in this class will explore art, dance, music, and drama. They will travel to a different art form every day as well as work on various art projects within their own classroom. We also offer our Intergalactic Art, El Sistema, Rainey Dance Academy, and STAGES to children entering grades 3 through 8th grade.

What school calendar does Rainey follow?
Rainey Institute programming reaches students from multiple schools. We develop our own calendar but try to stay as close to the CMSD schedule as possible. Our calendar will be distributed along with the Parent Handbook by August 27th, on our website, and provided at orientation as well.
Is Rainey transporting students to your program?
Rainey Institute has contracted with a school bus provider to transport children who attend Campus International, E Prep / Village Prep Cliffs Breakthrough School. Schools were determined based upon location/distance from Rainey and release time.
What time can I drop my child off if I am bringing them or another provider?
Students can be dropped off beginning at 3:00 pm.
How much does the Rainey program cost?
We are very grateful to the foundations as well as our corporate and individual donors. Their generosity allows us to ensure all children and families have access to our programming at a significantly reduced cost. Tuition is $13 per week and transportation is also just $13 per week. Tuition and transportation are billed regardless of the number of days your child is in attendance. You are only required to pay the non-refundable $25 deposit for tuition and transportation if you elect it. Financial assistance is also available by completing the Tuition Assistance application on our website under “tuition” or by calling 216-881-1766 and asking for LaNee Holmes or emailing her at [email protected]
Will students still get a meal?
Rainey Institute collaborates with the Cleveland Food Bank to provide for USDA approved meals.
Will my child be able to do their homework?
Rainey Institute allocates time for students to complete their homework between 3:00 pm and 4:00 pm. Our teachers rely on your children to inform them if they have homework and are never to go through a child’s backpack in search of agenda’s or homework. If your child is needing more support or time for homework we ask that you reach out to the Enrollment & Program Specialist, LaNee Holmes to discuss a plan.
“My child loved being able to express himself and make friends who share common interests with him.”
