Kumon Center of Denver - University Hills Policies and Procedures
CLASS SCHEDULE:
Students are scheduled to attend the center twice each week in thirty minute time slots. Dual-subject students are scheduled for one hour time slots. It is important to keep in mind that this time may vary (short/long) depending on the student’s level, age, and the worksheets assigned. You can choose the time slot most comfortable for you. Please attend at your scheduled time. If you do not arrive on time, you may be asked to pick up work for the day.
CONTINUITY:
Kumon is a year-round program of daily study. Continued advancement is a result of consistent study, which also fosters commitment, dedication and perseverance. For those students on holiday, the program is portable and with notice homework packages may easily be taken on vacation.
CLASS ATTENDANCE:
Class attendance is a vital part of the Kumon program. Observing students at work in class assists greatly in the planning process for that student. Introducing new concepts in class is preferred so we may assist your child in reaching his/her Kumon goals.
ABSENCE POLICY:
A student is considered "discontinued" in the program after two consecutive months of absence. The registration fee of $50 is required for re-enrollment in the program and the student will be re-tested
VACATION AND HOLIDAYS:
Please give 48 hour notice of any planned absences so that we can prepare assignments for your child’s absence. Students will pick up work on the center day prior to their absence.
CLASS RULES:
-
Students are required to behave in a respectful manner at the Kumon center – in class and the parent waiting area. This includes using good manners, a quiet voice and not being unruly.
-
It is always important to remember that students are studying and their time here must be respected. Students who are unable to follow the rules will be asked to leave the class in order to maintain the learning environment.
-
In order to maintain an atmosphere conducive to study we request that only students enter the Kumon Room. The only time the instructor is not available is during center hours, as the Instructor needs to use class time as observation opportunities to help monitor your child’s progress. Hence, parents are asked to remain in the waiting area while the class is in session.
-
Please note that personal electronic devices and toys are NOT allowed in the classroom.
-
Due to allergies and sensitivities, NO FOOD OR DRINKS are allowed in the classroom.
-
Parents of Early Learner students (pre-Gr1) are required to wait in the center for the entire time that their child is attending class.
-
If you leave the center, ensure that you return before your child’s class work is completed – you remain in full guardianship of your child. We cannot account for your child’s whereabouts once he/she has left the classroom/student area.
COMMUNICATION:
Success in Kumon requires pro-active communication on the part of the student, the parent, and the instructor. If you have any particular concerns about your child’s progress, the Kumon method, or anything else that the instructor may be able to help you with, please do not hesitate to call or email the center.
-
Planned center closures are announced in the center. A notice will also be posted in the Parent Waiting Area. Generally, the center is closed on statutory holiday, long weekends as well as winter break.
HOME-GRADING:
Parents must home grade all Kumon homework. All Kumon work must be dated, timed, and graded and then any mistakes must be corrected.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and commitment to developing your child’s potential.
