I will...

• Provide hands-on engaging instruction for your students.

• Provide all materials and curriculum.

• Give currently enrolled students priority for registration.

• Provide your student with an interactive notebook full of samples for their TF/ES meetings.

I will not...

• Require outside homework.

• Require you to commit to more than one semester at a time.

• Prorate the class fee due to your student's absence.

• Hold your student's spot in my class if you take a semester off.

You will...

• Let me know at least two weeks in advance if you would like to register for the next semester.

• Request purchase orders through your charter in a timely manner, or

• Pay by cash, check, Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal (bethbellinder@gmail.com) on or before the first day of class.

• Bring your student to class consistently and on time.  I appreciate being notified of your student's absence.

• Drop off no more than 10 minutes early or pick up more than 10 minutes late.  I understand that emergencies happen, but please be respectful of my time.

• NEW! Pay a late fee of $1 per minute per student for late pickup.  This fee takes effect 10 minutes after pickup time.  I allow 2 "free" incidents.  To clarify, on the third late pickup (more than 10 minutes), there will be a $1/minute fee per student.  The fee must be paid in cash when the student returns to class.

• Take home and/or take pictures and bring back their interactive notebook after a TF/ES meeting.

You will not...

• Have to stay with your child during class (although you are more than welcome to do so.)

• Have to supplement.  We will be addressing all relevant Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) during the course of the school year. 

• Have to buy any curriculum or supplies.  The class is all-inclusive.

• Send your child in their "nice" clothes.  This is hands-on science.  There will be messes!
