Behavior Guidelines

At Discovery Days, we want every family to feel welcome, respected, and safe. Clear guidelines help us care for one another and keep our co-op running smoothly. We want to create an environment where students can learn, friendships can grow, and families can enjoy being part of a supportive community.

• Parental Responsibility
  • Parents/guardians are responsible for their child(ren)’s behavior at all times.
  • If a parent must leave during the day, they must assign another on-site adult as a temporary guardian. Parents remain directly responsible for their children’s behavior.
  • If leaving, parent must sign out with the Hall Monitor, and must provide accurate contact information, location details, and temporary guardian name.
    
    
• Safety
  • Students may not bring items that could be used as weapons (e.g., knives, blades, or multi-tools).
  • Any prohibited items will be confiscated and returned to the parent.
    
    
• Respectful Conduct
  • Respect must be shown to rules, personal property, and those in authority—including other parents.
  • Profanity, coarse jokes, or hurtful language are not allowed.
  • Harassment or disrespect regarding religion, academics, or politics will not be tolerated. Civil, respectful discussion is welcome.
  • Inappropriate displays of affection or physical contact are not acceptable.
    
    
• Electronics
  • Students may not use electronic devices in class unless directed for instructional purposes.
    
    
• Health
  • Families should not attend if anyone has had a fever in the last 24 hours or has a known/suspected contagious illness.
  • See Sick Policy for full details.
    
    
• Punctuality & Participation
  • Arrive on time for all class sessions and scheduled activities.
  • Assistants will actively engage and participate in class.
  • Cleanup after each class session is the responsibility of the teacher and assistant.
