Noah’s Ark Learning Center, Inc.
Discipline Policy

Summer Camp at Noah's Ark has developed the following procedures
regarding discipline. Please know that the majority of our children behave
wonderfully and discipline rarely becomes an issue. A certain testing of
limits is expected and our counselors are adept in correcting minor
behavioral problems. The goal of Summer Camp at Noah’s Ark is to help
the children continue to grow and learn appropriate social behavior.  
Therefore, our desire is to work with the children, parents, and staff to find the
best solution concerning any behavioral problems.

Should it become necessary to move into formalized steps you will be
advised what behavior is prompting this decision. For those children that
exhibit unusually aggressive, dangerous or persistent misbehavior that is
not corrected, the following steps will be implemented.

STEP ONE:  For the first occurrence the counselor will discuss with the child the inappropriate
behavior and the consequences should the behavior continue (steps 2, 3, and 4).  
Documentation and signature by all parties.

STEP TWO:  Continued inappropriate behavior will require a conference between the child,
the counselor and the Director.  Documentation and signature by all parties.

STEP THREE:  Child will stay behind at Noah’s Ark and miss a field trip if behavior continues,
parents will be notified of this action. Documentation and signature by all parties.

STEP FOUR: The parent will be contacted.  A conference will be required for the parent,
child, counselor and Director to discuss the situation.  Step Five will be explained to
the parent and child. Documentation and signature by all parties.

STEP FIVE:  The parent will be notified and the child will be picked up immediately.
This practice will continue until behavior is corrected.  Documentation and signature
by all parties.

FIGHTING: If a physical altercation takes place, the children involved will be given a one day
suspension.  If a child has three (3) fights in one Summer, he will be removed from the
Summer Camp.

I acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Noah's Ark Discipline Policy and agree to abide by its terms.
