Parent Responsiblities

Parents are the backbone of Discovery Days. Your participation, responsibility,

and cooperation help the co-op run smoothly for all families.

• Preparation
  • Parents must read course descriptions and purchase all necessary books, supplies, and other specified items before classes begin.
• Volunteering
  • By registering your children, you agree to volunteer at co-op for the entire school year.
  • Parents are generally assigned one free session each co-op day.
  • During this session, the Mom’s Group Room is available for fellowship and coffee.
  • If a substitute is needed in a class, parents with a free session may be asked to help.
• Respect for Property
  • Please respect church property and use only designated areas.
  • Label personal belongings and avoid bringing valuables. The church and co-op are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged items.
  • Parents are responsible for their children’s behavior and for any damages or injuries caused by their children.
• Clean-Up
  • Clean up after your own lunch messes and push in chairs.
  • Help monitor and maintain orderly use of hallways, classrooms, and common areas.
• Rule Enforcement
  • All parents share responsibility for enforcing co-op rules.
  • Correct any child in a loving and respectful manner.
  • Repeated rule violations by any family member may result in loss of co-op participation. The Leadership Team reserves the right to deny or revoke participation.
• Playground Guidelines
  • Parents are responsible for their children on the playground during lunch and recess.
  • Animals behind the playground are off limits.
• End of Day
  • Co-op ends at 1:15 p.m. and all buildings must be cleared at that time.
  • Families may remain on the playground, but restrooms are closed and families must clean up after themselves.
