Information & Policy Guidelines
To help you and your student understand what will be required of CHEB members, prospective families will be required to visit on one of our spring visit days and interview with a CHEB board member.
Following are some of our guidelines to help you decide if a CHEB class is right for your middle/high school student and your family.
We offer core and elective classes. Core classes are meant to replace your home curriculum for that subject not act as a supplement. Of course, the decision to add to our assignments is yours based on what you know about your student(s).
Plan to spend between 20 minutes to 2 hours each school day per course depending on the subject and student's academic strengths. Students must understand there will need to be time given each day for classwork. Our purpose is to offer a high-quality education for each student. The parent's responsibility is to ensure time is allotted for study. It is the student's responsibility to be diligent. This is especially true for our math courses.
Students must have reliable internet and printer capabilities throughout the year. Many classes also require students to be able to scan their homework to a PDF format for online submission. This can be done with a desktop scanner or a smartphone/tablet application. Teachers cannot be expected to provide weekly copies for the students. Students must bring appropriate copies to class as instructed by teachers.
There are no refunds if a course is dropped after 3 weeks. The teachers have invested in the curriculum based on the total number enrolled. There will be partial refunds for the first 2 weeks. Please do not enroll your child unless you are committed to completing the year.
Parents are responsible for obtaining all classroom materials including textbooks before the beginning of the semester. The teachers may bring supplies such as paints, scissors, or glue. However, textbooks, workbooks, and copies are to be provided by the parents. This allows CHEB to continue offering courses at a reasonable price.
Students remaining on campus between classes must register for study hall. There will be a $25 per semester fee for each study hall. Students may not enroll in back-to-back study halls.
All families will be required to join CHEB whether your students are part of middle and high school or Learning Zone (elementary). Annual CHEB membership is $160 and is non-refundable. This amount includes a love offering for our host facility and other administration costs including insurance and website maintenance.
Families with middle and high school students will be required to volunteer for a three-and-a-half-hour shift 2-3 times a semester. The morning shift helps set up and the afternoon shift cleans up. Front desk volunteers are vital to the safety of our organization and serve as the main point of contact and information throughout the school day.
Fees will be $125 per class each semester for core classes and $100 per class each semester for all others. Some classes have an additional supply fee which should be paid directly to the instructor.
Classes may be canceled due to low enrollment.
Your registration is not complete until we receive your $160 non-refundable membership fee.
Students who miss class 5x during any semester may not be eligible for future enrollment.
