STSG Handbook

^^^  PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THE PDF FILE LINKED ABOVE!!!!  ^^^

Remember to abide by the handbook in order to maintain your future enrollment eligibility! 

Here is a brief summary of IMPORTANT STANDARDS from this handbook:

*Teachers reserve the right to decline any student's request into a class based on past behavior or lack of class participation, ability, or completion of assignments.

*All participants are to be in authorized locations only: classes or study hall, upstairs common area or courtyard for lunch, in a parent’s classroom, or with a parent in the parent area. If a student is given permission to leave a class, they should have that teacher’s ‘hall pass’. Those not complying may be reprimanded or disciplined. 

*Stone Table is a parent led organization, therefore volunteers are essential to STSG! All families are required to volunteer... Please keep your scheduled commitment. In case of an emergency or sickness, communicate with your volunteer coordinator ASAP to find a replacement. 

*Enrollment in STSG contractualizes you to a financial commitment. Please pay your student’s teachers on time, either in full or according to the payment plan. Class payments go directly to the teachers. STSG teachers reserve the right to unenroll students or restrict future enrollment in their classes due to tuition negligence.

*The home-educating parent must provide oversight and engage with their student outside of STSG in regard to all subjects: assigned coursework, reading, writing, submitting work, following the class schedule, test or quiz study, and special projects.

Please review with your student(s) these reminders:

Class expectations 

• Phones are to be turned off and put away for classes. 

• Come to class prepared with your books and necessary materials. 

• Arrive on time out of consideration for teachers and classmates.

• Due to limited class time, respectfully remain quiet and focused.

• Don’t be afraid to ask questions in class or through Classroom for clarification. 

• Show up! Your parents paid for you to attend.  If you are absent please communicate with your teachers. 

• The goal is for you to work independently under the supervision of your parents. 

Campus guidelines 

• Stay in designated areas: lunch areas,classrooms, study hall, with a parent in the parent hall, or with the teaching parent in their classroom. Students must be visible to an adult at all times. No sitting outside of the restrooms or in fall hall where the study hall teacher can not see you.

• Walk quietly in halls due to classes in session.

• Students may request a hall pass from their current teacher to leave during class. 

• Students may use the game room ONLY when authorized by STSG. 

• Open food and drink are to remain in the lunch areas (common area upstairs or outside).

• Students are not allowed to be in restrooms of the opposite biological gender.

• There is to be no public displays of affection on site.

• All electronics (i.e. computers, tablets, cell phones...) must be visible at all times. That means that if students are sitting against the wall in study hall or placing phones below tables they are not to be using electronics. (Students may turn to the side along the wall if they chose to sit there.) Refusal to comply will mean confiscation of the device to later be picked up by a parent.

• Be respectful of the building and clean up after yourself.
