I have read and agree to abide by the information in the Seaside Christian Co-op Family
Handbook.
I understand that Seaside Christian Co-op classes are supplemental to what is being taught
in the home and are meant for enrichment purposes only. As the parent, I also realize that
these classes will not complete any curriculum, only enhance them. The instructors do not
teach the entire subject matter, but are only enriching and assisting my instruction at home.
_____ I will make sure that I choose classes for my child that meet his/her needs. It is my
responsibility to be sure that my child can handle the expected requirements of the classes I
sign them up for.
I understand that Seaside Christian Co-op does not keep permanent records or assign
grades.
I understand that Seaside Christian Co-op does not give legal protection or legal assistance.
Also Seaside Christian Co-op is not obligated to testify regarding your homeschool’s validity,
authenticity, or effectiveness to legal authorities or in court.
I agree that my children will strive to regularly attend all classes for which I have registered
them. They will arrive on time, fully participate in the class by completing any homework
assignments and engage with other students and the instructor during class time.
I understand and agree that I must remain on the premises the entire time and be
responsible for my children regardless of their age whenever they are participating in co-op.
I understand and agree that Seaside Christian Co-op’s Leadership Team, Instructors or host
church will at no time be responsible for mishaps, injuries, or accidents that may occur
during the year.
I understand and agree to fulfill my duties as assigned by the Leadership Team.

Discipline Policy
All teachers and assistants will demonstrate love, grace, and helpfulness to all students. However,
this does not mean that inappropriate behavior or deliberate defiance will be tolerated. Bullying,
negative talk to or about another child, name calling, excluding others, unwholesome talk, or
behaving in any way that would cause injury to others are behaviors not allowed in our classrooms
or during any co-op event. No public displays of affection including but not limited to touching or
discussions of dating will be allowed at co-op.
If behavioral issues arise, the following protocol will be used
1. The teacher will address the problem with the student and send home a behavior slip to the
parents. If any student causes serious class disruption, he/she will be removed from class that day
and taken immediately to the parent. If the parent is not available, the child will be placed in study
hall until the parent is located.
2. If the behavior problem persists after parental involvement, the leadership team will be consulted
and a parent/student/board conference will be required. The student may be asked not to return to
co-op for a season, on a case by case basis.
3. For any behavioral issues beyond the first two measures taken, students will be asked not to
return to co-op for the remainder of the year.
Any purposeful acts of violence or vandalism will result in immediate expulsion. We do not
anticipate having any problems, but in fairness to all we will adhere to this policy.
All final decisions will be at the discretion of the leadership.
This is not an exhaustive list of desired behavior and co-op members should always be guided by
Christ’s Golden Rule: So in everything, do unto others what you would have them do unto you.
