INCLEMENT WEATHER If Dexter Schools are closed for the day or dismissed early due to weather, all Community Education classes and facility rentals are cancelled for the day. SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS D e x t e r C o m m u n i t y E d ucation offers students need-based scholarships for most of our programs to Dexter School District Families. We offer one per child per catalog. Generally, students who qualify for free lunch through the schools qualify for a scholarship of up to $100 for one class; students who qualify for reduced lunch may be eligible for a partial scholarship. We may also offer scholarships for families with special circumstances on a case-by-case basis. We are not able to offer scholarships for programs that are not run by Community Education, nor for classes that do not meet minimum enrollments. All scholarships require the Director’s approval. If you register for a class using a scholarship and cancel less than one week prior to start date, you will forfeit your scholarship for that semester. To apply for a Community Education scholarship, fill out the scholarship application form (available from our office and on our website) and return it to our office as soon as you know you are interested. We will confirm your eligibility, but hold registration until the class meets minimum enrollment to run. Your “place in line” for registration is reserved. When the class meets the minimum, we will register your child and send you confirmation of enrollment. REMEMBER TO VOTE Nov. 8! PHOTOS Community Education often takes photos or short video of students in our programs. We use these photos in catalogs, brochures, and other Community Education or Dexter Community Schools promotional materials. We may also post photos on our website, or social media.

Fee: $75 W 9/14-10/5 10:30am-12:00pm #3029-F16 INFORMATION ABOUT YOUTH PROGRAMMING TRANSPORTATION TO AFTERSCHOOL CLASSES If your child is enrolled in our afterschool care program and s/he takes a class in their care building, our Class to Care option allows them to return to care following class. We do not provide transportation or escorts between buildings for afterschool classes. If your child takes an afterschool class in a different building than they attend, they may walk to the building alone as long as this does not involve crossing Baker Rd. Creekside students who attend afterschool programs at Wylie, Mill Creek, Bates, or Cornerstone will take the shuttle to the bus loop behind Wylie and walk from there. Parents of young children (K-2) may want to practice walking their child to class the first few times, or make arrangements for someone to walk them regularly. It really depends on each child’s independence and comfort level. Please inform your child’s classroom teacher of any afterschool classes they take, so the teacher can remind the child of the arrangement at dismissal. LATE PICKUPS In the event that a parent does not arrive on time to pick up a child from a Community Education class, the instructor will wait with the student for 5 minutes, then walk him or her to the Care Room if it is before 6:00pm. Our Program Coordinator will locate parents. If you know you will be late, please contact our office ASAP by calling 424-4180, ext. 1302. In the event that a child is not picked up within 60 minutes of class ending without any contact from parents, we must contact the sheriff’s department per State of MI policy. CONTACT INFORMATION Please update your family contact information every time you register for a course. Pay special attention to your primary phone number and email address. These are the main ways we contact parents with updates including cancellations, location changes, or other timely information. We do not have access to the schools’ student databases. CHANGES IN PLANS If your child will not attend a Community Education class as scheduled, please notify our office in advance by calling 424-4180. Schools do not notify us when students go home sick or are scheduled for vacation. Absence notification is especially important with afterschool classes because our staff take attendance to make sure all students arrive safely from their buildings. If a student doesn’t arrive as planned, we have to contact the buses and parents to find them. LAST-MINUTE CANCELLATIONS In the event that we must cancel a class with short notice, we notify buildings so the office can make an announcement for staff and students. We also call and email parents of children in the class. Families should have a back-up plan in place prior to this happening so the student knows whether to take the bus or go home with a friend, etc. In the event that a child is left at school after a cancellation, our office will watch them while we try to contact parents and emergency contacts. LOST AND FOUND If your child leaves an item at an afterschool class, please check with that building’s office first. If the item isn’t there, feel free to call our office to check on it.
