ILLNESS:
If your child is ill, please keep him/her home until they are well enough to participate and enjoy the Summer Program. We are required to exclude any child from our programs who has any illness associated with a fever or any communicable condition such as diarrhea, ringworm, impetigo, head lice, pink eye, and scabies. If a parent chooses not to exclude his/her child, the parent must provide a written statement from a physician indicating the the child’s illness or condition is not highly communicable. A child should have a normal temperature for 24 hours before returning to the program. If your child becomes ill at the Center, we will separate them from the others while we contact you and plans are made to pick them up.
*Call us if your child will be absent.
You may call the Center after 6:30 AM at 402-477-8854
RULES OF THE PROGRAM:
The rules of the program are important and will be followed closely, so each child has the opportunity to have fun, in a safe environment.
- Rough housing or horse play will not be allowed (no hitting, spitting, wrestling, etc.)
- Absolutely no foul language or name calling will be allowed.
- Children MUST wear shoes at all times, preferably tennis shoes.
- Please do not let your child bring candy or gum to the Summer Program. Children will only be allowed to buy items from the pop or candy machines during supervised times (during lunch – with a parent’s approval).
- Any medicines which need to be given to your child during child care hours MUST be brought in to the office in the original, labeled container and we MUST have a parent’s signature on a Child’s Medication Record form BEFORE we can give the medicine. All medications given as needed must have a Dr. note saying the child may have medication as needed before we can administer it to your child. Call the office if you have questions. All medications will be kept locked in the Center office.
- The Belmont Community Center reserves the right to suspend any participant who is causing serious problems or injury to any participant or supervisor either verbally or physically. Suspension, which may be from one day to permanent, will take place according to the Participant Suspension Policy. The Executive Director of the Center will have the discretion of enacting the policy. Parents will be notified about such suspension immediately.
- Parents of children not picked up by 5:45 PM for the Super Summer Program will be charged $3.00 for the first five (5) minutes and $1.00 for every minute after that time.
