We feel it is our responsibility to make robots accessible to everyone. We are actively working to provide complete accessibility to our in-person and online platforms to people with disabilities.

If any information about our programs is not accessible to you, please send an email to [email protected].  Our Customer Service will assist you promptly with your questions.

We strive to create a classroom culture that values and celebrates diversity, where individuals feel accepted and supported for who they are. Emotion regulation can be hard, more so for some students than others. Teachers are trained to handle conflict among students, and whenever possible will support students in finding alternative ways to interact and manage conflict. We strive to help all students find ways to express their needs that align with our community goals.

Brooklyn Robot Foundry is committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment that values diversity, encourages individuality, and promotes positive relationships among students. Bullying, defined as deliberate, repeated, and hurtful behavior toward another person or group of other people, is not tolerated as it undermines the positive and inclusive atmosphere we strive to create. Students who are engaging in deliberate, repeated, and hurtful behavior toward another person will be asked to sign an agreement to cease those behaviors, the consequences of breaking that agreement may include leaving the program.

We reserve the right to ask anyone to leave the session if it is determined that they are a danger to themselves or others, or are considered disruptive to the program. We will do our best to work with children and families on alternative solutions before this option is exercised.

Program Policies

There will be no refunds or credits given for missed classes. We do not offer make-up classes unless specifically arranged prior. 

Brooklyn Robot Foundry is the sole provider of these programs, and projects are not to be built outside of our scheduled classes. Students who miss a class will not be provided with a robot kit.

We reserve the right to cancel a class or event due to low registration or staff availability. In this case, customers will receive a full refund.

If we have to cancel a class due to severe weather, an emergency, or other unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, a make-up class or online class may be scheduled instead. In the event of an extended closure due to a pandemic or an emergency, all classes will be held online instead. Arrangements will be made to get materials to all students in the event of online classes.
