Holidays
and Schedule Changes
Mercer Education observes the following holidays:
- New Year’s Day
- Memorial Day
- Independence Day
- Labor Day (1st Monday in September)
- Thanksgiving Day (4th Thursday in November)
- Christmas Day (December 25)
Mercer Education has students from many school districts and
may conduct classes when other schools have holidays or are on break. ME is
closed from December 24th through January 1st and during the last week of
June every year (exact dates vary). Please refer to your invoice or contact
the school if you are not sure whether the school is open.
How often do classes begin?
ME offers private and small group classes year round, seven (7) days a week,
from 9am to 9pm. Students can enroll at any time and start classes on a
"first come-first serve" basis throughout the year. Tuition is based on
2-month blocks of pre-scheduled classes (January-February, March-April,
etc.) Students beginning classes after the start of a 2-month session will
be responsible only for those classes scheduled to occur after their
enrollment date. Private classes generally meet once or twice a week, though
we can arrange more frequent classes when necessary. Most group-class
students attend a specific class once a week throughout the year. Group
classes require a minimum of three students and are limited to eight
students, so joining such a class depends upon the availability of spaces.
If spaces are available, students may enroll in group classes at any time
and do not need to wait until the start of the next 2-month session. If we
cannot start a class at the time you contact us, we add you to our waiting
lists, and we will do our best to fit you in as soon as we can.

** For Advanced SAT Verbal Camp,
Advanced SAT Math Camp, and College Counseling and Admissions Camp, we do our best to schedule classes so that all applicants can attend, and in the past we have always been able to accommodate applicants to these programs. However, given our students’ busy agendas and limited availability, in order to facilitate scheduling, we require that applicants to these camps complete a Student Availability Form listing ALL times at which they are available. Schedules for these two camps are typically finalized in the week prior to their commencement.
