Student Supervision

We recognize that our students occasionally will participate in learning activities outside of the home or campus setting. In order to protect our students at these various locations, including third-party locations we have the following safeguards in place.

Criminal Record Checks

Anyone who has contact with children, regardless of ageage, is required to have a Criminal Record Check (CRC) on file with Flex Academy. This includes anyone in a volunteer or supervisory role, and excludes relatives and family members working with their own children.role.

Supervision Before and After School,School and during Breaks
  • At the beginning of the school day, parents and guardians are asked to drop off students between 8:15-8:30am so that students can go directly to their classrooms.
  • Parents and guardians are asked to pick up their students between 3:00-3:15pm
  • Flex Academy has a crossing guard available in the parking lot during morning drop-off and afternoon pickup.

Drop-off and Pick-up

Drop off and pick up for Students in Jr. K to grade 2 happens with parents parking in designated parking stalls and walking their students to the Elementary door drop off on the right-hand side of the church building (picture #3 shows as the 'top' side of the building). Parking stalls are assigned yearly and sent to families before the first day of school.

Drop off and pickup for students in grades 3-12 is drive-through in the Flex Academy parking lot. Parents/guardians picking up students in grades 3-12 can either do a drive-through pick-up in the Flex Academy parking lot (picture #1) or park in the church's back parking lot (picture #2).

During the school day, visitors are welcome to park in the middle parking that is between the church and gym buildings.

Risk Management
  • If staff members have serious concerns regarding the welfare and safety of a student, then they are to first contact their administration or the Student at Risk Team (SRT) with that concern. If deemed a safety risk to the student, then the family will be reported under the Child Abuse and Neglect Policy.
  • All off-site activities require appropriate supervision so that students can be observed and attended to as needed. Supervisors must follow the CRC requirements.
  • The preference for supervisors is Flex Academy staff member (Teacher, Educational Assistant, Learning Coach, Athletics Coordinator, or Director)
  • Any parent supervisors must have a current volunteer  CRC on file with Flex Academy prior to supervising children.
