Membership

Rules and Regulations

In order for all the members to be safe and enjoy their extra opportunities to learn, certain rules are necessary. These rules have been developed as guidelines for having positive experience in the program.

Parents/guardians must make arrangement for members to be picked up by an authorized person everyday by 6:00pm (unless they have signed a permission to walk home on the Enrollment Form). The “Sign-Out Authorization Form” provides a place for parents/guardians to list other persons who are authorized to pick up the child.

The school rules are in effect at all times at the Boys & Girls Clubs. Members whose behavior warrants will be disciplined by the program staff and the regular school administration.

Respectful, polite behavior is encouraged at all times. Foul or abusive language, verbal or physical threats or abuse of others will not be tolerated. The progressive discipline plan outlined in the “Discipline Policy” will be followed as needed.

Members must stay in areas where staff are present. Members must never leave the site without permission or knowledge of the program staff.

Please leave personal items and toys at home. Staff will not be responsible for lost items that should not have been brought to school in the first place. Donations of board games, etc., on the other will be happily accepted.

Members will be asked to help clean up their spills and messes. Everyone will help keep the program area/Club looking neat and clean.

Field trips and special programs are a privilege. Members who do not cooperate with staff members may lose that privilege until they prove that they can follow rules and be trusted to behave safely and courteously.

It is very important for members to obey the adult staff at all times. Failure to do so may result in suspension or expulsion from the program.
