In addition to paying tuition for classes, the following activities are required for each family whose child attends Triangle Cooperative Nursery School.
Classroom assist days
Members assist the teacher in the
classroom for their child’s entire school day, arriving 15 minutes
early to help with set-up and staying approximately 30 minutes after
school to help with clean-up. Depending on enrollment, parents of
three-year-olds assist approximately seven days per semester, and
parents of four-year-olds approximately nine days per semester.
Maintenance
Members assume responsibility for their share
of school maintenance. This includes a maximum of three Friday or
Sunday clean-up sessions per year for each family. In addition,
participation is required at one major clean-up session per year.
School job
Each family will have a job that will
contribute to the operation of the school. Every effort is made to
match the requirements of a job with the interests and skills of the
member.
Meetings
Members are required to attend all General Meetings. There are three per year, held in the evening at the church.
Fundraising
Members are responsible for a share of the
school’s fundraising. Each family is required to raise a minimum amount
during the school year by participating in fundraising events as
determined by the Board and approved by the General Membership, with
the option of buying out part or all of the requirement. For 2012-2013,
the minimum amount to be raised by each family is $150. |
