If you have any questions about upcoming classes or the program, please contact the Youth Program Coordinator at youthprograms@alliancehouston.org


Please note:
- Children must be fully potty trained to attend class independently, as our instructors are not able to change diapers.
- If your child is still wearing a diaper, a parent or guardian must remain on-site in the waiting area throughout the class.
- Parents may not leave the Alliance Française during the class time.
