MEMBERSHIP GUIDELINES

REQUIREMENTS FOR MEMBERSHIP IN B.E.E.C.H. HOMESCHOOL COMMUNITY

  1. Register and Pay Dues.  Please note that since budgets are planned and allocated at the beginning of the year, dues are non-refundable.
  2. Agree and Sign the Terms of Service which include:
    1.  Statement of Faith
    2. Code of Conduct
    3. Child Well Policy
    4. Liability Waiver
    5. Bylaws
  3. Serve on one Team or Event during the fall and one team or event in the spring of the School Year.  Please note - members that register for Spring Semester will serve on one Team or Event in the spring. 
  4. Attend both Mandatory Meetings - One in August and One in Early Spring Semester (Jan -March) which is held at the same time/place as the BEECH Bazaar.  It is the member's responsibility to notify the BEECH Board if they have a conflict with the date due to vacation, etc. to get an excused absence.  
    • Some Examples of Excused Absences:
      1. Your child's Birthday same day as Meeting
      2. Preplanned Vacation/Out of Town
      3. Death in the family
    • Please note that we have these meetings to keep everyone connected and make sure the important information about the year reaches our members and we (the Board) make ourselves available - often having to rearrange our and our children's schedules.  The following (and similar) examples are not usually considered excused absences - you have ample notice of the meeting and can make childcare arrangements, arrange for the kid's to get a ride to/from activities, etc. or bring the kids with you if necessary:
      1. Child extracurricular activities
      2. Husband out of town
      3. Bible Study/Church
      4. Sports
      5. Other meetings - we only ask that you meet twice a year, and ask that you make our meeting the priority.  
  5. All members must have a computer and email access as this website, email and the GroupME app (works on both computers and mobile devices) are our main forms of communication.  Chat posts can be answered directly from email or from your mobile device.
  6. Service Requirements must be met to register for the following year.
  7. Must receive forum emails/text chat from the Official B.E.E.C.H. Forum, Bulletin Board, and any age group that your child belongs to.  (So if you have 2 Children, one in K and the other in the Tween group you would need to get the forums for both groups).  While we recommend that you belong to other forums that would be of interest to you - like Family Fun Events, BEECH Bazaar Homeschool Opportunities, Curriculum for sale, etc - all other Forum Loops are Optional.  
  8. Members are required to join the BEECH Bulletin Board GroupME.  Members are highly encouraged to join the appropriate GroupME for each child's age group.
