Policies and Information
Parents, please read this notice carefully, and it will help answer any question you might have.
Parents
You are most welcome at the first night of class. After that, we ask that you wait outside the teaching area. This will minimize any distraction. Parents, family, friends, etc. will be invited to attend “Parents Night/Awards Night” (usually the last night of class).
Class Cancellations
There are scheduled cancellations your coach/instructor is responsible for to make you aware of at class. If there are any unscheduled cancellations that occur you will be notified either by your coach/instructor or by phone.
If school is closed due to inclement weather or any other unseen event your class will be canceled that day also. This also pertains to early closing due to weather, or if all evening events have been cancelled.
Facility
We are guests in the facility where classes are held and we expect our coaches, students, and parents to respect the facility. If you have siblings waiting while their sister or brother attends class please do not let them run the halls. There should not be food and drink in the halls. No one should enter a class room at any time. Again we are guests and if the facility and we could loose the right to use the facility if it is disrespected.
Safety
Parents are required to bring students into the facility and sign the child in with the teacher/secretary at the beginning of class. At the end of class, parents must always come back in to the building to pick students up. Students will not be allowed to leave the building unattended.
Payments
Please bring your class fee in an envelope with your child’s first and last name and the amount enclosed written on the outside. If you are paying by cash be sure to ask for a receipt. If you are paying by check, make all checks payable to Young Champions. We have a minimum check policy: No checks under $20.00, all checks must have driver’s license number and phone number on them. Non-collected checks are automatically forwarded to Global Payments collection services; they charge a minimum of $25.00. Young Champions is unable to accept funds towards insufficient checks. You must contact Global Payments 1-800-638-4600. If you have paid in full, or prepaid a particular week, please bring a slip of paper with your child’s name on it marked “Prepaid”. This will allow us to check the students in much faster. If you forgot to do this, you will be marked absent. Always be sure to sign in before entering the gym.
