We want to make sure you are happy with your program or class experience. To request a refund for a class or program fee, a Refund Request Form must be submitted to the PaRCS Department. Refunds take approximately two to three weeks to process. Forms are at the Burien Community Center:

14700 6th Avenue SW
Burien, WA 98166
Phone: (206) 988-3700

Full refunds will be given for any classes canceled by the City of Burien.

If, after your first class you are not completely satisfied with your experience, we will refund your full registration minus a $5 processing fee.

After the second class, a refund or transfer will not be offered.

Refunds will not be issued for programs costing $5 or less (unless canceled by the PaRCS department).

One-day classes, trips, and special events are not covered under this policy (no refunds available).

Scholarships that match 50 percent of the cost of a program are available. Please call (206) 988-3700 for more information.
