It's Their Choice To Go Home
We want to have fun here at HVCC, but the kids have to want to be here to do that!
​
Sending a kiddo home is never our preferred choice, but sometimes due to hard days and poor choices, it is our best option. One bad attitude can ruin the entire group dynamic!
​
We always work to restore good behavior and choices when a kid is struggling on any particular day, but there does come a point when we need to make a choice together on if we need to call parents to come pick up their child.
​
We are responsible for keeping the whole group of kids we have under control and in an environment conductive to enjoying activities and play time. It is NOT our responsibility to provide extensive corrective measures to a child who has no desire to cooperate or be a positive part of the HVCC program.
​
**Remember that fighting and violence will result in calling without redirection or warnings!**
​
POLICY GUIDELINES
We will redirect inappropriate choices, behaviors, and lack of listening once.
​
If a 2nd correction is needed within a day, a HVCC staff member and the child will have a discussion. The child will be presented with two options: (1) Correct behavior and participate in programming as asked or (2) call parents/guardians to request immediate pickup.
​
If the child chooses to go home, the following guidelines will be followed:

HVCC ATTENDANCE POLICY
IF YOU CAN'T GO TO SCHOOL, IT'S PROBABLY BEST TO STAY HOME FROM HVCC:)
Sick and Can't Go To School?
​
We want to keep all our little humans as healthy as possible, and germs can spread crazy quick!
If your child is too sick to be able to attend school, we ask that they stay home from HVCC as well.
Suspension Expectations​
If your child has been suspended or asked to take a break from school, they are not able to participate in HVCC programming.
We do not believe they are bad kid and we will miss them here, but we do believe that they will better understand the consequences of their actions if they are unable to attend HVCC due to their inappropriate behavior at school that resulted in their suspension.
​
*If a student is expelled the school may make arrangements for HVCC to provide academic supports, but that does not mean the student will be able to attend HVCC as normal.
If you have any questions about our policy, please let us know.
​
Thank you!
