ASC/SA Pick-up Procedure
Pick up will begin in the breezeway at 4:30 pm. A staff member will greet you and call for your child. If you come to pick your child up before 4:30 pm, please ring the buzzer beside the door and your child will be walked down. Children will not be allowed to leave the church by themselves. Only family members and contacts listed on the registration form will be allowed to pick up children. To ensure maximum security and safety of your child, you may be required to show picture identification.
​
Snacks
An afternoon snack is provided every day. If a child does not like what is offered or has food allergies, please send a snack from home. It is important that children who want a snack understand that snack is only available during snack time. During all-day care, a morning snack will be provided as well as an afternoon snack, but lunch must be brought from home.
​
Homework
Children may do their homework in a quiet area. Please let staff know if you prefer your child do homework after snack.
​
Discipline
The majority of misbehavior is managed by verbal reprimand, redirecting behavior and teaching an alternate appropriate behavior. Unusual occurrences will be handled by the ASC Director or in some cases the CMB. If necessary, parent conferences may be scheduled. Behavior that cannot be appropriately managed by ASC staff may result in expulsion from the program. If your child is suspended from school for disciplinary reasons, he/she is not allowed to come to ASC during the suspension.
