How do I know which
level of math or reading is right for my child? (back
to top)
Courses in the mathematics and language arts sections are listed
in order of difficulty. Teachers give a pretest to students on the first day of the
class and will make level changes as needed. Parents will
be called if a change is necessary.
What if my child needs to be absent for an entire week? (back
to top)
Daily attendance is required for all academic classes, health, driver’s
education, and both levels of Computer-Basic. If a student were to miss
an entire week, he/she would not be able to receive the required credits for
the class. In other classes, an entire week’s absence would be
possible although not recommended. Please make note of any planned absences
on your registration form. Make-up work may be assigned by the teacher.
What if my child wants to take only one enrichment class or one semester
of an academic class? (back to top)
We will be happy to make a change if there is room in another class
before the program begins. Please understand that our program is popular and
many classes close early, so in order for your child to get the class he/she
wants, be sure to enroll as early as possible. If you request for the change
to occur after the program has begun, there will be a $25 fee assessed.
What if my child is unhappy and wants to change a class? (back

We will be happy to make a change if there is room in
another class. Please understand that our program is popular and
many classes close early, so in order for your child to get the
class he/she wants, be sure to enroll as early as possible.
What if we enroll early but then have a change of plans or an emergency
situation? (back to top)
Our refund policy is that if we are notified of your need
to cancel by June 16th, we will return 90% of the fees. If we receive
notification by June 26th, we will return 50%. After June 26, we
are unable to refund any amount of the payment unless there is
an extraordinary circumstance to be decided by the director.
What if my child is a reluctant participant in summer learning? (back
to top)
Many of our classes are very popular with even reluctant learners. It
sometimes helps if the parent chooses one class and the student chooses another. We
do not allow one child to compromise the learning of another. If your
child is not participating properly in class, you will receive a phone call
from the teacher.
How will I know my child’s progress? (back
to top)
Each of the SAEP teachers has a web-based grade program. Both
you and your student will receive a username and password. You
can access this program at any point during the five-week program
and for three weeks after. If you have questions or concerns
regarding the grade or attendance of your child, you can email
the teacher directly. Also, some of the classes have presentations
to which you will be invited, such as art and drama. You may
also call the office and make arrangements for a classroom visitation.
Will my child’s school receive a transcript? (back
to top)
On the Registration Form, you marked whether or not you wanted
to receive transcripts for the courses taken. We will honor your
request given here, unless you notify that you have changed your
mind.
What if my child needs tutoring in the academic math or
Spanish classes? (back to top)
As long as prior notice is given to the teacher, we provide
free tutoring by qualified teaching assistants for one hour after
class.
How will my young child navigate a college campus? (back
to top)
This year we are adding an 'Open House' to our schedule on July 1st.
Parents are encouraged to come with their student/s to meet the teachers and
take a campus tour. Also, on the first day, we request all parents to park
in Lot B6 (Plummer and Etiwanda) and walk their children to Cleary Court (see
map) where they will meet their teacher. The first period teacher will bring
them back here to meet with his/her second period teacher. T.A.s are available
to walk students to their second period class for as long as the student wishes.
On the first day only, after second period, on the first day, the teacher walks
the class back to Cleary Court where you can meet your student.
Where may I park or drop-off and pick-up my child? (back
to top)
Pick-up
on the first day will be in Lot B6 (Plummer and Etiwanda). Depending
upon which building your child is in, he/she will
be given a list
of appropriate parking lots for subsequent days. Drop-off and pick-up
is to take place in parking lots only. We
recommend that you stay with your car when you drop-off or pick-up
your child. We have “crossing guards” at each
parking lot to assist your child across the street. If you
leave your car unattended or if you drop-off or pick-up your child
in the street, you may receive a ticket from the campus police. For
the safety of your child, please follow the instructions of the “crossing
guards.”
Is there daycare
available for my child after the SAEP? (back
to top)
Yes, there are two camps that begin after our classes are completed for the day.
Please call Sunny Days Camp 12:45 - 6:00pm at (818) 677-3617
or Tennis and Swim Camp 12:45 - 6:00pm at (818) 677-2058 for further
information and registration.
Do I need to turn
in proof that my child has met the prerequisite for a course?? (back
to top)
No. On the first day of class, the teacher will give a pre-test
to each student to make sure that every student is enrolled in
the correct level of the sequence. If the child tests higher/lower,
adjustments will be made after contacting the parent.
When does registration end? (back
to top)
Regular registration's last day will be June 18. On June 19 a fee
of $25 needs to be added to all new registrations. We can take
registrations all the way up until July 3, if space is available.
