REGISTRATION & ENROLLMENT
Registration for all programs is administered through Gaston County Schools. Enrollment forms and payments cannot be accepted at the program sites. Space in all programs is limited and waiting lists are formed as necessary.
After-School: Registration begins during the month of July for the following school year. Students are not automatically enrolled year to year. Students must be re-enrolled by the parent during the designated period and remain enrolled in the program through the last school day of the current school year to be guaranteed a space for the next year. All children in the Pinewood district, grades K-5, have equal access to the After-School program. At the time of registration, an enrollment form and a non-refundable registration fee are collected.
Teacher Workdays: Registration information for child care on Teacher Workdays is set up at the beginning of the school year. Registrations are accepted throughout the school year as space allows. Enrollment is limited, and only registered students may attend. An extra fee (see current year’s fee schedule) is charged to the account for each Teacher Workday for which a child is registered, regardless of attendance.
ENROLLMENT
Children are placed in similar-grade or multi-grade groups dependent upon enrollment numbers. Changes in enrollment in the programs may result in regrouping of students at any point during the program term.
A child who is not enrolled in the After-School is not permitted to attend as a visitor with an enrolled child.
WITHDRAWALS
After School: Notification of withdrawal from the After-School program must be made by a phone call, written notification or email notification to the Program Administrator, Dr. LeAnne W. Conyers. Notice of withdrawal must not be given to the After-School staff. Re-enrollment priority for the next school year will not be granted to students who are not enrolled in the program through the last school day of the year. If a child is withdrawn from the program and wishes to rejoin at a later date, the child's name will be placed on a waiting list if necessary. A space cannot be guaranteed or held once a child is withdrawn.
Teacher Workdays: Cancellation of registration for this program must be received at least two weeks in advance of the Teacher Workday in order to avoid full charges.WAIT LISTS
Once the enrollment capacity has been reached, a wait list is started. Families will be notified when spaces become available. In order to be placed on the waitlist, an enrollment form must be completed and submitted.
