Q:

What are my obligations as a parent?

A:

You are responsible for the following:
1. to see that financial obligations (registration fee and tuition) are taken care of in a timely manner
2. to pick up/drop off your student on time
3. to encourage your student in their studies and communication with tutors
4. to track your student’s progress if you want classes to count towards graduation requirements

FCCT is a parent-run, homeschool tutoring group that is cooperative in nature. There is a leadership team that coordinates the details of FCCT, but for this community to stay strong and functioning we need many parent volunteers.  We always need/love parent volunteers for the various events that we have throughout the year!
Please contact our event coordinator (

Q:

Is there a dress code at FCCT?

A:

We ask that all students dress appropriately and modestly with no logos or advertising that may be seen as offensive. For young ladies we ask that any skirts or shorts should be no shorter than mid-thigh and also that shirts cover tummy.  

 For our formal Christmas party the girls typically wear fancy dresses like you might wear to a homecoming dance or prom, though some just dress in nice clothes like they might wear to church.  If you go fancy, the length of the dress (and any thigh slits) should be past your fingers when you're standing and the top shouldn't plunge low and show any cleavage and no two piece tummy showing outfits.

Q:

What is the family membership registration fee?

A:

The family membership registration fee is $50/term and covers facility and FCCT operating costs (insurance, supplies, etc.)  Tutors are paid a separate amount for tuition for each class they offer.  The Leadership Team receives no salary and are all volunteers.
