2 Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. - John F. Kennedy Welcome to Homeschool PE at the Pavilion! The goal of physical education classes for students is to have planned activities promoting individual and cooperative physical, mental, emotional, and social development. We are excited to have the opportunity to provide a session of activities for your children encouraging physical fitness at the Pavilion. We know that your children are excited about Homeschool PE and our goal is to provide a safe, caring, and active environment. Contact Information Wherever we are, you can reach us!

Parents and any other individuals should come prepared to show their photo ID each time they arrive to pick up a child. You may add an authorized pick-up name to the list by letting the coordinator know via personal conversation or written note. Children will not be released to anyone under the age of 16. Children are not permitted to sign themselves out even if a parent is with them. These policies have been established for your child s safety. Please be patient with our staff as we learn names and faces throughout the session. Late Pick-Up If you arrive after the close of the class to pick up your child, a $1.00 per minute late fee will be charged. This fee must be paid to the front desk at the time of pick up. (Cash, Check and Visa/MasterCard accepted) Inclement Weather Policy During the Spring Session, if Greenville County Schools are closed for the day due to inclement weather, there will be no Homeschool P.E. Program. Weekly Newsletter Our weekly newsletters are distributed the Friday prior to each weekly meeting. They contain all the information you need to make sure your child is prepared. Contact info, departure times, and what your child will need are all listed. What Do I Wear/Bring? Your children should be dressed comfortably in clothes for being active. Send them dressed in t- shirts, shorts or comfortable pants, and tennis shoes. Socks are required for the Bounce House and for ice skates. Each child is provided with a water bottle. Please make sure your child has a water bottle each week. On swim days, your child should come to class wearing his/her bathing suit under his/her clothes. This speeds up the process of entering the swim facilities. For outdoor facilities, be sure to send your child with sunscreen and for additional sun protection, tight fitting swim shirts are very helpful. Electronic devices and cell phones are not permitted at the Homeschool PE program.

5 Discipline We believe that a high level of expectations promotes a high level of performance. Disrespectful and disruptive behavior will result in appropriate consequences. We also believe that communication between our staff and each child s parents/guardians is the key element in resolving any disciplinary issues. Pavilion Programming The Pavilion offers many additional opportunities for your child. We would encourage you to take a look through our website for more information regarding Skating or Tennis lessons, Summer Camps, our Learn to Play/Skate programs, and birthday party opportunities. Our Kids Night Out program is very popular and there is information below. Kids Night Out This program is offered the first Friday of the month during the school year from 6 pm to 10 pm. Drop your children off in a safe, structured environment while you enjoy a night on the town, catch a movie, grab a bite to eat, or just enjoy a nice evening of peace and quiet.. Activities Include: Bounce House, Ice Skating, Themed Games/Craft, Movie and Popcorn, Dinner (Pizza, Chips, and a Drink) WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO A GREAT SESSION!
