Homeschool Adventures Policies
- Classroom Behavior: Please discuss respectful and cooperative behavior with your child. Our educators reserve the right to dismiss a student for reoccurring inappropriate or disruptive behavior. Behavior-related dismissals will not be refunded.
- Arrival/Pick-Up: Children should arrive no earlier than 5 minutes before the program begins as there is no supervision before that time. There will be a charge of $5 per 5 minutes for each student that remains more than 10 minutes after a program. Please list all adults authorized for pick-up on your registration form. Non-authorized adults are not permitted to sign your children out.
