快乐谷中文学校诚招老师

 为保障正常教学秩序，明确学校与学生家庭双方的责任与权益，特作如下说明。家长为学生完成报名，即表示已阅读、理解并同意遵守本声明以及《快乐谷中文学校学生报名说明》中的相关规定。

1. 入学年龄要求

所有新生家庭，特别是即将进入幼儿园及低年级课程的学生家长，请注意以下年龄要求：

• 中文K班：学生须在入学当年 8月31日（含当日）前满4周岁；
• 中文1年级：学生须在入学当年 8月31日（含当日）前满5周岁；

请家长关注8月底至9月初学校官网发布的相关通知，并尽量在开学前完成网上注册。

近年来，由于学生报名人数和课程需求有所变化，学校需要根据报名情况提前确定课程是否达到开班人数要求，并安排教师及教室。如果大量家庭集中在开学当天现场报名，将给课程安排带来较大困难。

学校将尽力保障课程内容、教学进度及教学质量的连续性，并在条件允许的情况下及时通知相关家长。

任课教师的临时代课或调整不视为课程取消。家长如因教师安排或教师变更申请退课，除学校另有明确通知外，仍按照学校统一的第8条《退课及退款规定》执行。

10. 学生课堂适应及教师评估

为保障学生本人及班级其他学生的正常学习，如任课教师根据课堂实际情况和专业判断，认为某学生目前尚未具备参加该课程所需的基本课堂适应能力，或当前课程/班级并不适合该学生，教师可向学校提出调整课程、班级或退课的建议。

学校将与家长沟通，并根据具体情况决定是否需要调整课程、班级或办理退课。涉及退款的，原则上按照学校第8条《退课及退款规定》及具体情况处理。

To help maintain an orderly and effective learning environment and to clarify the responsibilities of both the school and participating families, Happy Valley Chinese School provides the following registration policies.

By completing a student's registration, the parent/guardian acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agreed to follow this notice and the applicable policies contained in the Happy Valley Chinese School Registration Information and related school guidelines.

1. Age Requirements

Please note the following minimum age requirements, particularly for new students entering kindergarten-level and beginning courses:

• Chinese Kindergarten (K): Students must be 4 years old on or before August 31 of the year of enrollment.
• Chinese Grade 1: Students must be 5 years old on or before August 31 of the year of enrollment.
• CSL (Chinese as a Second Language): Students without a prior Chinese-language learning background must be 6 years old on or before August 31 of the year of enrollment.

Students who do not meet the applicable age requirement generally will not be eligible to register for that course.

2. Online Registration

Online registration for the Fall 2026 semester will be open from September 1 through 11:59 PM on September 16, 2026. Online registration will close at midnight on the Wednesday before the first day of school.

On-site registration will still be available on the first day of school. However, a $10 late registration fee per student will be charged. This fee will be contributed to the school's development fund.

Families are encouraged to check the school website for announcements from late August through early September and to complete online registration before the first day of school.

The school uses advance enrollment numbers to determine whether individual classes have sufficient enrollment and to arrange teachers and classrooms. A large number of registrations on the first day of school can make these arrangements difficult.

We therefore strongly encourage families to complete registration as early as possible.

3. First Day of School

The Fall 2026 semester will begin on Saturday, September 19, 2026.

4. School Location

Young Scholars of Central PA Charter School
1530 Westerly Pkwy
State College, PA 16801

5. Payment and On-Site Services

School staff will be available at the school location beginning at 12:15 PM on the first day of school.

Parents/guardians should complete payment promptly to avoid delays in students joining their classes.

6. Documents Required for Payment

Please bring a printed copy of your registration confirmation/receipt email when making payment so that school staff can verify your registration information.

7. Registration Confirmation Emails

After completing online registration, parents/guardians will receive two confirmation emails:

1. A registration confirmation/receipt, which should be printed and brought for payment;
2. A second email containing a Google Form link, which may be used to update registration information, change a course, or add a course.

Please note: If you do not see these emails in your inbox, please check your Spam or Junk folder.

8. Withdrawal and Refund Policy

The following policy applies when a student withdraws from a course:

1. If a withdrawal request is submitted before the third class meeting and is confirmed by the school, all applicable course fees, except the registration fee, may be refunded.
2. Withdrawal requests submitted on or after the third class meeting are generally not eligible for a refund.

9. Teacher Assignments and Changes

The school assigns instructors based on course offerings, teacher availability, and overall instructional needs.

Before or during the semester, the school may arrange a substitute teacher or change an instructor for part or all of the remaining semester due to teacher availability, school activities, instructional needs, or other circumstances.

The school will make reasonable efforts to maintain continuity in course content, instructional progress, and teaching quality and, when reasonably practicable, will notify affected families of significant instructor changes.

A temporary substitute or change of instructor does not constitute cancellation of the course. If a parent/guardian chooses to withdraw a student because of a teacher assignment or instructor change, the school's standard Withdrawal and Refund Policy in Section 8 will apply unless the school expressly provides otherwise.

10. Student Readiness and Classroom Placement

To maintain an appropriate learning environment for all students, if an instructor determines, based on classroom observations and professional judgment, that a student is not currently ready to participate appropriately in a particular class or that another course or class placement would be more suitable, the instructor may recommend a class change, course change, or withdrawal.

The school will communicate with the parent/guardian and determine an appropriate course of action based on the circumstances. Any applicable refund will generally be handled according to the Withdrawal and Refund Policy in Section 8 and the specific circumstances involved.

11. Returned Checks

If a check submitted to the school is returned by the bank, a $30 returned-check fee will be charged in addition to the original amount due.

The school may temporarily suspend the student's participation in classes until all outstanding fees have been paid.

12. Parent Volunteer Duty and Cleaning Service Fee

At the beginning of each semester, the school collects a $10 cleaning service fee.

Parents who wish to complete their volunteer duty should sign up for an available time on the volunteer schedule at the school front desk. After completing the assigned duty, please sign the volunteer record and confirm completion with the designated school representative.

After the required volunteer duty has been completed, please provide the school with the necessary electronic payment information so that the applicable amount can be refunded according to school procedures.

13. Student Pick-Up and Late Pick-Up Fee

For student safety and to respect the time of school staff and volunteers, parents/guardians are expected to pick up their children promptly.

Beginning with the second occurrence of late pick-up, a $10 late pick-up fee per student will be charged each time a child is picked up after 5:20 PM.
