If it becomes necessary to take disciplinary action against a participant/camper the steps that will be followed are outlined below:

1st Incident: The participant will receive a verbal warning and an explanation as to why the behavior is inappropriate (whenever possible, this will be done in a one-on-one setting removed from other participants).

2nd Incident: Staff will determine an appropriate consequence for the participant's actions (examples may include a "time out" or exclusion from participation in an activity). The participant's parents/guardians will be notified of their child's behavior when they arrive for pick-up.

3rd Incident: Parents will be called to pick their child up and the child will be removed from the program/camp for the day.

4th Incident: The child will be removed from the program/camp for the remainder of the season/program without a tuition refund for the remainder of that week. Please note if you enrolled in the following weeks of the program/camp, you will receive a refund excluding the cancellation fee.

IMPORTANT:
Examples of a situation that may qualify as an incident can be: not listening to staff or disruption of activities for other participants, disrespecting camp/program/park equipment, use of profanity or degrading language, bulling or exclusionary language, unwanted physical touch of another participant or staff.
