STATEMENT OF COOPERATION AND CODE OF CONDUCT

 

Parents should understand this is an application for admission or readmission to TCS and submission does not guarantee acceptance or space for your child.  The Admissions Committee will review and act on all applications and their decision is final.  Parents will be notified within 21 days if a child is not accepted. As a parent I understand and agree that continued enrollment and reenrollment of my children in Temple Christian Schools is dependent on my parental support of the school, its staff, and its policies. (I understand latest  updated information on items below can always be found on the TCS website www.tcseagles.org)

 

The following Statement of Cooperation and Code of Conduct are signed by the student’s parents and the student indicating they agree and understand the responsibilities of the Statement and the Code of Conduct.

 

1. (Because TCS attempts to maintain tuition and fees at the lowest level possible, it is herby understood parents will pay tuition for the account as stated on the Financial Information Sheets.)

We understand payments are due the first day of each month.  After the tenth calendar day of the month there will be a $25 late charge on any unpaid balance.  TCS cannot accept post dated checks.  Should payment not be received by the 10th of the month, the school will notify parents of the outstanding payment and late fee by mail, email or phone call.  If payment is not received by the 15th day of the same month, the student may not be permitted to attend classes until the account is made current.  Parents anticipating financial difficulties should immediately contact the Financial Administrator for consultation.  Accounts must be current before enrollment is accepted for the coming year.  No records or transcripts will be released until a student’s account is paid in full.  TCS accepts cash, checks, money orders, MasterCard and Visa credit or debit cards for tuition payments.  Accounts may also be paid on-line.   (TCS’s budget is based on students remaining the entire school year – salaries, books, maintenance, etc. are based on this.  The policy for refunds is explained on the Financial Information Sheet.  The policy applies for those students who enroll, but never actually attend, withdraw, are expelled, unenrolled, or who for any other reason fail to continue in attendance at TCS for the entire school year.)

 

2. Since fees do not cover the actual cost of educating our child, we recognize that our participation is needed in prayer, service and gifts in order to properly share in our student’s training.

 

3. In full cooperation with the school, we will attempt to attend Parent-Teacher meetings or conferences as scheduled or requested.  We sincerely pledge our loyalty to the aims and ideals of the administration.

 

4. The teacher and administration are hereby given full discretion in the discipline of our child.  This includes the issuing of fines, detentions, suspension, unenrolling and expelling from the school program.  Parents may also be requested to come to school to discipline younger students.  Detention halls may be used before or after school for various offenses, and transportation will be fully the parent’s responsibility.  Incomplete homework may result in detention for elementary students.

 

5. The School administration reserves the right to dismiss, expel, suspend or unenroll any student at any time for any reason it may deem necessary.  If a student is dismissed for any reason, the tuition will be prorated for the period of time the child is in school as stated in the Financial Information sheet.  All new students are admitted on 9 weeks probation and during this time may be dismissed at the school’s discretion for any reason stated or unstated. (Students who do not adapt to the TCS curriculum and fail to pass a subject during the first semester will be referred to the Academic Committee to determine if continued enrollment is advised)

 

6. This State of Cooperation may not be voided except by the TCS Admission’s Committee.

 

7. In making application for my child and signing this statement, it is my desire to have him/her attend the school year 20__-20__.  It is also my understanding that the policy for the school is to make no refunds on registration fees.  I also give permission for my child to take part in all school-sponsored trips away from the school premises, and absolve the school from liability to me or my child because of any injury to my child at school or while on a school sponsored trip or during any activity as long as my child is enrolled at TCS.  In case of accident or serious illness, I request the school to contact me.  If the school is unable to reach me, I hereby authorize the school to call my physician, and to follow his instructions.  If it is impossible to contact my physician, the school may make whatever arrangements seem necessary.  I hereby authorize such medical treatment as may be necessary under such circumstances.
