    control procedure that is required. In addition to being a safety measure, it provides the records for

    on a first come first served basis. All students must have field trip permission forms

    completed by a parent or guardian before going on field trips. Verbal permissions will

    NOT be accepted.

    GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

    As in all human relations, occasions will arise when due to a lack of communication, some

    differences of opinion may come into being between parent and teacher. Parents are encouraged

    to discuss the problem with the teacher concerned. Only when this approach proves to be

    unsatisfactory should a parent consult the Director about the situation.

    PARENT PARTICIPATION

    The Parents in Partnership (PIP) is the name of our parent body. Partnership means that parents are

    In cooperation with and support the school administration. We need you to become involved.

    The school is not and cannot stand along in educating children. The students learning experience

    require the unified efforts of parents, students, and the school. Parents in Partnership will meet

    on a monthly basis. The purpose of the meeting is to learn about school programs and activities, to

  • 8/3/2019 TCDC 2011-2012 School Handbook

    11/20

    advise and implement plans for greater parental involvement, and to discuss and resolve issues and

    concerns. Our Parents and Partnership is a required program. Ten (10) hours of volunteer

    time per family or $100.00 meets this requirement. There are numerous volunteer opportunities at

    our school. We need parents to help out with our book fairs, all fundraising activities, appreciation

    luncheons, school programs, chaperoning on field trips, lunch and recess monitors teachers aides

    and volunteering to become a room parent for your childs classroom.

    SCHOOL VISITS

    Parents/Guardians and guest are always welcome and are encouraged to come to the school.

    However, to keep classrooms disruptions to a minimum, please come to the school officebefore going to your childs class.

    To schedule appointments to meet with teachers or administrators, please call the school

    office at 248-334-6436. Teachers will not be permitted to meet with parents during school

    hours 8:30 A.M.-3:30 PM. unless specific arrangements have been made in advance. Others(i.e., students, relatives, etc.) who wish to visit the school and/or attend class with an

    academy student may doso by making arrangements with the school office. Visitors must adhere to the schools dress

    code and conduct standards.

    PARKING

    Your cooperation in following the rules for parking is veryimportant. Please, DO NOT PARK IN FRONT OF THE

    SCHOOL OR CHURCH WHEN DROPPING OFF OR PICKINGUP YOUR CHILDREN. Parking in front of either building willresult in your child being dismissed from the school program.

    ATTENDANCE and TARDINESS

    1. If a student is to be absent from or late to school, the school office must be notified not later than

    8:45 am.

    2. A written note explaining an absence will be required from the parent upon returning to school.

    3. Personal illness or death in the family (a one week limit) constitutes justifiable absence.

    4. The school director prior to the absence must excuse any absence other than those listed in item

    number 3.

    5. Students are responsible for making up work missed during absence.

  • 8/3/2019 TCDC 2011-2012 School Handbook

    12/20

    6. The teacher and director will review students with absences in excess of 20 days. The students

    promotion into the next grade may be called into question or denied.

    7. Three unexcused tardies will equal an absence. (For example, if a student has six unexcused

    tardies, they will count as two absent days on the students record).

    Excessive tardiness and absenteeism can adversely affect students performance. If a pattern of

    tardiness emerges, parents will be called for a conference with the school director to discuss waysto alleviate the problem. Since tardiness not only affects the student who is late but his or her

    classmates as well, failure to correct the problem may result in dismissal from the school.

    EARLY DISMISSAL/PARENT and VISITORS to SCHOOL

    Parents and visitors are requested NOT to go to the teachers classroom during the

    school day.

    Any student requesting early dismissal must have a written explanation from home. The reason for

    the dismissal, the time of the dismissal and the name of the adult responsible to pick

    up the child must be stated. This excuse will be signed and dated by the Director and

    kept on file.

    The parents or the adults are asked to come to the school office to sign out the student (when they

    come for him/her during the school hours.

    In the event that a child forgets something, we ask that the parent deliver the forgotten item to the

    office. The school secretary will see that it is delivered to the child. Your cooperation in this matter is

    greatly appreciated.

    HOMEWORK POLICY

    Homework is not an option. Homework is an extended time for learning. Itcan provide practice and drill that reinforce classroom learning andopportunities for independent study, research, creative and critical thinking.

    Carefully planned homework contributes to higher academic achievement andcreates a closer-bond between the home and school by keeping parents in touchwith their childs progress.

  • 8/3/2019 TCDC 2011-2012 School Handbook

    14/20

    The amount of homework given depends on the grade level and ability of thestudents. The assignment should be geared to the childs level of knowledge andskill, but it should be planned so all invest the same amount of time.

    There are various kinds of homework. All homework should be definite, alwaysexplained, and preferably started in class with the guidance of the teacher.

    Drill and Practice for skills already taught

    Study-study guide, spelling, math facts

    Read-leisure and reinforcement at an independent level

    Projects/Research-that can be done independently by the student

    Complete-unfinished class workHomeworkis to be turned in by the due date to receive full credit for it. If astudent is absent, missed homework will be given to them upon their return, oryou may call the school office and request to pick it up.

    Parents are to check and sign or initial homework. Just the act of checkinghomework can give parents an indication that the child understands theconcept. If the student is having difficulty or there is a problem with a homeworkassignment, please notify the childs teacher as soon as possible.

    DISCIPLINE

    The staff will use positive methods of discipline, which develop self-control, self-direction, self-esteem, and a spirit of cooperation for the child. Discipline will beimmediate and appropriate to the behavior.

    However, when a childs behavior is undesirable or his or her manner isisruptive to the

    educational process, and the child is in danger of hurting himself/herself orthose around him/her, he/she may be spoken to on a one-to-one basis, and thenplaced in a quieter area (time out).

    If a childs behavior becomes unruly and he/she loses emotional control, thechild will be taken to the directors office. The Director will talk with the child andtry to solve the problem and help the child gain self-control. The office is never asite for fear or punishment. A child must learn to live with logical consequencesto develop positive self-discipline traits.

    If a child continues to be rude and uncooperative, his/her parent will be asked tocome to the school immediately and take the child home. The child may returnonly after parents and the school Director consults.

    Our discipline objective is to have children willingly obey those who haveauthority over them. During the school day, those who have such authority arethe teachers and staff. Parents and school must work together to develop well-disciplined students.

  • 8/3/2019 TCDC 2011-2012 School Handbook

    15/20

    Parents will be expected to pick up a child who has been brought to the

    office for the following:

    Pushing or fighting

    Insubordination or disrespect toward staff/adults

    Stealing

    Intimidation of other students Swearing

    Lying

    Each child in the school will have a safe environment. The behaviors listedabove do not foster a safe environment and will not be permitted. Tuition willnot be refunded or prorated for school time missed by the child underthese circumstances.

    Parents are to review the discipline policy with the child. Because we encourageparental cooperation in the educational process, we expect parents to assumefull responsibility when itcomes to disciplining their children and working with the center and academy toguide the children toward acceptable behaviors. Teachers will communicate withparents via newsletters shortly after school starts for the year. Communicationwill include the specifics of the discipline plan for the classroom. Corporalpunishment will not be used to discipline students.

    EMERGENCY INFORMATION CARD

    This information is extremely important. Each card must be filled out properly, front and

    back. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to keep all information on this card up-to-

    date.

    MEDICAL INFORMATION

    Any child who develops a fever or shows any other indication of illness will be isolated from the

    rest of the children immediately. The parent will be notified to pick up the child immediately. If

    there is any indication that the child may have a contagious illness, do not bring the child to

    school. Please notify the school immediately of any contagious illness contracted by the child.

    All children must be up-date on their immunizations. Children entering kindergarten must

    have (5) DTP. (4) OPV/IPV, (2) MMR, and the Hepatitis B Series of immunizations recorded

    on their health appraisal in order to enroll for class. A health appraisal form signed by a

    physician must be completed at the time of enrollment and up-dated every year. In the case of

    injury, which warrants emergency medical treatment, parents will be notified immediately and

    emergency treatment will be arranged for in accordance with the information on the Child

    Information Card.

    UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS & CHILD CARE CENTERS

    The spread of germs in a child care environment is quite high. Each child and adult in the child care

    carries her own set of germs that can spread illness and disease. Universal precautions were set up to

    protect both children and adults in child care settings from passing germs from one person to another.

    This set of precautions was put in place by the Centers for Disease Control back in the 1980s.

    WASHING HANDS

    Hands are required to be washed before and after diapering, handling or cleaning of bodily fluids of any

    kind, after applying first aid of any kind and after removing protective gloves. This helps keep the

    spread of germs to a minimum. Bodily fluids contain germs that can be passed from one persons body

    to another.

    LATEX GLOVES

    Latex gloves are required when handling any bodily fluids that might or do contain blood, including

    urine, vomit and feces, and when performing first aid on another person. Latex gloves are disposable so

    if there is contact with germs they can be removed and disposed of to avoid the germs spreading to

    others.

    SANITIZING THE ENVIRONMENT

    Use a bleach solution on all surfaces, and toys should be washed down regularly and as needed if soiled.

    Remember that germs are not visible to the naked eye, so just because a toy or surface looks clean does

    not mean that it is. Cleaning all surfaces and toys at regular intervals can help keep a cleaner, more

    sanitary environment for all people in the child care environment.

    PROPER DISPOSAL OF SOILED ITEMS OR MATERIALS

    All items that have come in contact with blood need to be double bagged and given to the parent or

    washed separately in the child care laundry facility. If any child requires injections or finger lancets for

    blood testing, the parents of the child are required to provide a sharps container for the disposal of these

    items.
