Enrichment Policies Schedule Enrichment classes will not meet on school half days or holidays. No credit or refund will be given for students who are registered for more than one program on a particular day or time. It is the parents’ responsibility to ensure a student is not registered for overlapping classes. Prorated credits or refunds will not be given for student absences from enrichment classes.

Dismissal Students attending an enrichment class will attend After School Care for no additional charge prior to the start of their enrichment class. However, students must be picked up immediately after the end of the enrichment class at the next designated carpool time.

Otherwise, a $25 drop-in fee will apply to attend After School Care after the class. (See the Dismissal section to view the entire policy.)

Registration Advance registration for enrichment classes is required. Classes are filled on a first-come, first-served basis until one week before the start of the class or when spots have been filled. All registration fees must be paid in full. Cancellations must be made via email to Ariel Denton, Director of Auxiliary Programs, five business days prior to the start date in order to receive a refund (less a $15 cancellation fee). No registrations are possible within 24 hours before the start of the class.

Online Policies In addition to GSL's Technology Acceptable Use Policy*, the following policies apply: The educational tools used during enrichment courses are chosen at the discretion of the camp instructor/vendor and may not coincide with the tools chosen by Grace-St. Luke’s.

ACE Policies All policies and procedures in GSL’s parent/student handbooks apply to ACE. The following are additional policies specific to ACE.

Registration GSL uses UltraCamp to manage all ACE registrations and billing activity. An UltraCamp account with a valid credit card on file is required to register for all ACE programs.

Before registering, new families should: 1. Create an UltraCamp account 2. Add a credit card To register: 1. View upcoming sessions and select the offering your child is interested in attending 2. Proceed to checkout and pay the fee Program fees must be paid in full three days prior to the start of the program for a student to be enrolled. Registration closes a week prior to the start of the program. Program dates, times, and locations can be found in UltraCamp or in the ACE brochure.

ACE reserves the right to reschedule, modify, or cancel a program for reasons such as, but not exclusive to, insufficient enrollment or instructor illness. In the event of a cancellation by the school, a full credit will be issued to the student’s UltraCamp account.

In the event of a cancellation by a family for After School Care or ACE @ Play, parents must email adenton@gslschool.org five business days prior to the start of the program in order to receive credit (less a $15 cancellation fee). If not cancelled before this time, no credit will be given. No prorated credits or refunds will be given for student absences from enrichment classes, regardless of advance notice.

Attendance Parents are asked to communicate with ACE regarding any change in your child’s attendance in ACE by calling the ACE office at 901-677-2245 or emailing adenton@gslschool.org.

If a student did not attend school on a given day, then s|he is not eligible to participate in ACE activities that afternoon. No prorated credits or refunds will be given for student absences.

Students must be supervised on campus at all times. Therefore, an on-campus student not checked into another program will be required to attend After School Care. If not registered for full-time After School Care, a drop-in fee will apply.

ACE Policies Dismissal ACE offers staggered dismissal times that coincide with the end of enrichment classes. Families may pick up in the carpool line at these designated times of 4:30, 5:15, or 5:45 p.m. after their child's enrichment ends. On Wednesdays, families have an additional choice to pick up at 3:00 p.m. Parents may pick up outside these hours by calling the ACE office at 901-677-2245.

Students who are not registered with after care but attended for enrichment purposes must be picked up within 15 minutes of their enrichment ending. For example, if the enrichment ends at 4:30 p.m. and the student(s) are not registered with ACE, they must be picked up by 4:45 p.m. or they will be charged as a drop-in.

At the Preschool, parents should pull up to the red awning in the Miss Lee’s lot. Please be prepared to buckle your child in once s|he is brought to you. In Lower School, parents should pull up to the circle driveway. In Middle School, parents should pull up to the awning next to the Middle School building on Lemaster Street. An ACE staff member will check your identification, then bring your child to you. Please be prepared to wait in your vehicle for a few minutes, as your child will need time to gather his or her items. Remain in your vehicle unless your child needs assistance getting into the vehicle and buckling. Parents with children in multiple divisions will need to go through each carpool line separately, so please plan accordingly.

Students will only be released to an adult listed on the approved pick-up list. Parents may make arrangements for someone other than those listed to pick up a child by informing the ACE office in writing at adenton@gslschool.org. Anyone picking up will be asked to show valid picture identification until the staff become familiar with them.

Parents with students who walk home independently in After School Care should notify the ACE office in writing in advance and include the time when the student should depart campus.

Communication Program-wide information appears in the weekly eNews. Additionally, any changes to programs will be emailed to the parent/guardians of participants.

32

Unless parents/guardians notify the Director of Auxiliary Programs in writing, families consent to the use, publication, and copyright by GSL of any material created by their children and of any photographs, video, and/or audio recordings in which their children may appear in programs or activities of GSL. Parents allow the usage of these materials in any of GSL’s publications and promotional materials, via print, radio, television, outdoor, internet, and social media. The foregoing consent shall extend beyond a child’s registration in this program.

25

ACE Policies Lunch & Snacks Students have an opportunity to eat a snack in After School Care. All students are required to bring a pre-packaged afternoon snack each day. Please send snacks in easy-to-open containers that require minimal adult assistance. Please also make sure students have a water bottle every day.

During ACE @ Play, students should bring two snacks and a lunch, as the cafeteria is not open for ACE @ Play. No food can be microwaved or refrigerated, so the use of room-temperature items, ice packs, and/or thermoses is recommended.

Discipline It is expected that every student utilizing ACE adhere to the school's procedures and standards of behavior, which are located in the handbook on MyGSL. ACE reserves the right to dismiss any student from the program.

Electronics We strive to develop connections within our ACE community. To help foster these connections, personal electronics such as cell phones and tablets are not allowed. Students will be allowed to use the office phone to contact home if needed, and families are encouraged to call the office at 901-677-2245 if you need to contact your child. ACE staff may give permission for school-owned tablets or laptops to be used during closely supervised homework times.

Illness Students who are experiencing symptoms of a communicable illness or disease will be separated from the group, and the parent will be contacted immediately and asked to make arrangements to pick up the student. Expedient action to pick up the student within the hour will be required for his or her own personal care. ACE will follow GSL’s protocols for any child who is experiencing symptoms.

Late Pick-Up A late pick-up fee of $5 per minute will be charged for any student whose ride home is not waiting in the last carpool line promptly at closing time. Parents/guardians should inform the staff if they will be late by calling the office at 901-677-2245.
