Participation Policies

Medications  
We will not distribute medications to children.   We recommend that if medication is needed it be received before 2:50 PM or after 6 PM.

Personal Belongings  
Make sure your child has warm clothes as needed for outdoor play.  Please label all of your child’s belongings.  We will make every effort to ensure your items are not lost.  We will not be liable for lost items. Please dress children each day for appropriate outdoor weather activities in the afternoon.

Poor Behavior/ Discipline
TLC After School believes in RESPECT for each other.  We will only speak to your child with respect when we need to provide discipline.  Should there be a problem, your child will be given two verbal warnings to correct a behavior.  We will work hard with you and your child to ensure their success, but respect and kindness is imperative.  Should we be experiencing any behavior problems, you will be advised. If the problem continues to be ongoing, your child will no longer be able to attend TLC After School Program.

Mutual Respect
Please know that we are working with your children by choice and in good faith.  We simply can not continue to work with parents that continually run late in picking up their children or who are regularly rude to our staff.  Should either of these situations occur, your child will no longer be welcome to attend our program.  I hope that you will understand and respect our position on this issue.

Accidents/Illness/Emergencies
When a child becomes ill or is injured during the after school program, the parent/guardian will be contacted.  If the parent can not be reached our staff will adhere to the emergency contact information on your child’s registration form.  Please notify us immediately if changes occur in addresses, phone numbers or emergency contacts for your child.  Should we not be able to reach anyone listed, we will take emergency actions necessary for the safety of your child.

Hours
The after school program operates from 2:50 PM – 6:00 PM Monday through Friday.  We close at 6PM.  If you will be later than 6PM please call and notify us. Should you run late regularly your child will not be welcome to attend our after school program.
The program will not be available on holidays or days that school is not in session. 

Payments
Payments are expected prior to your child attending TLC After School Program.  The Learning Camp payment box will be in the school office during school hours.  It will be on our table in the after school program during our program hours.  Simply put your check in the envelope provided and identify your child, his/her grade level and his/her schedule on the envelope.
