Parent & Student Agreements


AOA PARENT AGREEMENT

As the parent/guardian of a student enrolled with Alpha Omega Academy, I understand and agree to the following.

I acknowledge that the Academy’s curriculum is written from a Bible-centered, Christian worldview in accordance with the Academy’s statement of faith.

I will review and abide by all policies and procedures in the Academy’s online Resource Center. 

I understand that it is my responsibility to meet all applicable local and state educational laws and requirements. I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to select the course of study needed to meet any applicable graduation requirements in my state.

I understand that Alpha Omega Academy has been awarded full accreditation through AdvancED, the world's largest educational association, formed by uniting the regional accrediting associations NCA CASI, SACS CASI, and CITA. The voluntary accreditation process verifies that the Academy’s program meets or exceeds essential standards of educational quality. However, it does not guarantee the transfer of high school credits, since local school districts or institutions may create their own policies of credit transfer. Some schools or colleges may require additional validation of academic achievement.
 
I understand that I am responsible for providing onsite supervision for my student and for motivating my student to follow and complete each assigned course of study within the designated enrollment period, and on a schedule that facilitates receiving teacher feedback.
 
I understand that the work my student submits to the Academy must be his/hers solely. Tests and quizzes must be completed by the student in one sitting, independent of any other resources (e.g., answer keys, lesson text, “coaching,” etc.).
 
I understand that the academic year is considered to be 180 school days (approximately nine calendar months), but if necessary, a maximum of twelve months are allowed to complete one school year’s coursework.
 
I understand that the registration fee is non-refundable once it has been processed, regardless of placement test results.
 
I understand that the Academy reserves the right to cancel enrollment at any time due to non-payment of fees, unsatisfactory progress, program abuse, or failure to follow Academy procedures.
 
I have read and understand the cancellation and refund policy. If I choose to cancel or withdraw my student, I will notify the Academy in writing or by e-mail.
 
I understand that the Academy does not discriminate on the basis of gender, race, color, or national origin.
 
I am aware that the Academy may change polices and procedures as needed. These changes will be announced on the Academy e-newsletter called AOA Today and/or the Academy Resource Center.
 
I agree to update the Academy with current contact information, including email, postal, and shipping addresses, and telephone, and I recognize that email and the AOA web site are the preferred means of communication between the Academy and me.
 
By enrolling my student in Alpha Omega Academy (“AOA”), I grant AOA permission to send me the Academy e-newsletter, AOA Today, and I agree to remain subscribed to AOA Today as long as one or more of my children are enrolled in AOA. Furthermore, I recognize that this is the Academy’s primary means of communicating policy and procedural developments to parents and students, and that as the parent or guardian of any enrolled AOA students, I am responsible for reading the information in the AOA Today e-newsletter

I give permission to Alpha Omega Academy to use photographs of my child that I have provided, if I choose to provide photographs, for promotional purposes such as, but not limited to, promotional flyers, newsletters, the AOA website, yearbooks, and/or student ID cards.


AOA STUDENT AGREEMENT
Knowing that God sees everything I do, I pledge the following:

I will do my best to complete my schoolwork on my own, but if I need help, I will let my parent or teacher know.

I will show courtesy and respect in all communications with Academy staff and students.

I will do my best to follow the Academy rules and complete my work on schedule.

I will not cheat. I will answer the questions on my quizzes and tests from memory without help from any other person or source not named in the directions.

I will not share answers with any other student.

In my writing projects I will follow Academy guidelines for showing where I found the exact words or specific information

If using the Synchronization version of Switched-On Schoolhouse, I will synchronize before and after completing my daily school work, whenever possible.
