AUTHORIZATION OF MEDICAL CARE: We, the undersigned, certify that the applicant is in good health and may participate in activities at Southern Michigan Gymnastics and Fitness Center, LLC (SMG, LLC). In case of emergency requiring medical treatment, in case a parent cannot be reached, the staff of SMG, LLC may authorize medical care and treatment for the above named participant.
AGREEMENT TO PAY / POLICIES AND PROCEDURES:
Child Safety- parents are responsible for their child's behavior and their safety while on our premises…including parking lots, bathrooms, waiting areas, etc. I have reviewed the Waiting Room policies in the parent handbook. I understand that I must walk into the building and wait for the start of class and be on time for pickup and walk into the building to pick up. There is no food or drink allowed in the waiting rooms or gym.
Tuition is due the 20th of each month in advance for the following month. If paid after the first of the month, a $5 late fee will be applied per child. The student will not be allowed to take classes if their bill is more than 30 days past due. There is a 30 day drop notice. One month's tuition will be processed after your drop notice. Our school year season starts the second week of August and ends the second week of June. We do not prorate for missed classes. We calculate the tuition for the entire season then divide it into monthly payments, some months will not have four classes, some will have 3, some will have 5. If you register during the month after the 20th, the system will automatically prorate the current month for you and will charge you the pro-rated amount along with the registration fee the day upon registration. You would then be charged for the next month’s tuition on that date for the following month’s tuition in advance since all tuition is due in advance.
Missed classes- I understand that there are no refunds or credits for missed or dropped classes once the session begins. I have read and understood these important policies.
