Behavioral Policy   -The Boys & Girls Club of Chula Vista reserves the right to suspend or terminate membership privileges for inappropriate behavior at any time.  We strive to provide what every child needs to succeed in the club environment. We do not have the resources to implement or sustain a plan for managing extreme behavioral issues. It is a disservice to maintain a child in our program if we cannot meet the child’s individual needs while maintaining a safe and productive environment for children and staff.

Your child should carry his or her membership card  at all times while at the Club.  Replacement cards may be purchased for $2 each.

 OPEN DOOR” POLICY

With the exception of the Small Wonders preschool,
all other programs offered by the Club are not licensed child care
At our Club Sites, we do not monitor the door and children are free to come and go as they wish.  Our staff does not grant permission to leave the Club Site, nor do we insist they stay.  The decision as to when a child arrives at the Club, or when he/she leaves, and with whom, is a matter to be arranged between parent and child. Children not mature enough to capably handle this responsibility should have the close supervision of other, more appropriate childcare services.
We are concerned about the safety of all of our members.
One way to support your child remaining within the Club is to encourage
their participation in our many programs and activities
   
Rules at school sites vary by site.  Please talk to staff to clarify the rules at your site.
