FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - ADVENTURES IN GROWING

Can I watch my child while they are in class?
Of course! Family members are welcome visitors in Adventures in Growing (AIG). Please feel free to join us for snack, field trips, or simply to observe in the classroom.

What is your policy for illness?
AIG follows the Illness Policy set by the State Department of Health & Welfare, and will be included in the New Student Handbook.

What is your discipline policy?
AIG is a place where children learn rules of cooperation and refine their social skills.  In our program, children have many hands on experiences, make choices and spend limited amount of time sitting and listening to adults.  Because they are so busy, the amount of misbehavior is kept to a minimum. 

We know however that conflicts will arise as they do in everyday life, so we help children resolve conflicts in positive and safe ways.  Our number one rule is that we are all safe here.  This ensures children’s safety, health, and personal rights. We set the rules with our children so they understand them and gain self-control. When spirits do get high, we use redirection as a means of guidance and discipline.  Physical punishment is never used.  We will have a child take a break and remove him/her from the group if he/she is hurting himself/herself or another child.  In this situation, a  teacher would remain with the child to help him/her regain composure.
