Parent/Guardian Enrollment Agreement

By enrolling their child into GROW Distance Education, Parents will be taken through the following document:

  1. All Elementary, Elementary Rural Secondary Schools, and Secondary Schools in School District No. 27 have a designated “catchment area.”  These catchment areas are used for School Districts to staff the catchment school with teachers and support staff.  If your child is currently enrolled into a neighborhood school, and your child enrolls in GROW (Graduation Routes Other Ways), then the spot that your child has with their current school may no longer be available to them if you choose to return to that school.  Therefore, if at any time you decide that you would like to withdraw your child from Graduation Routes Other Ways, you may apply back to your child’s previous school, but the return of the child to that school will only happen if or once space becomes available.
  2. My child is enrolled in a BC public school program funded by the Ministry of Education.
  3. I understand that I will be required to work collaboratively with a School District #27 teacher to develop and then approve a Student Learning Plan for my child.
  4. All students must complete a “Substantive” Assignment (approximately 5% of the course for each course) within three weeks or less of enrollment and return the assignment back to their teacher.
  5. I commit to submitting sufficient work samples of student work on a bi-weekly basis to ensure ongoing progress is being made per the BC Ministry of Education guidelines for reporting.
  6. I understand that summative assessment/reporting is the sole responsibility of the teacher, however, daily monitoring, supervision, and ongoing feedback (marking) are the responsibilities of the parent educator.
  7. I understand that I must use materials that meet the BC Ministry of Education Learning Standards, and as such are approved by my child’s teacher.
  8. I accept responsibility for the proper care, security of learning resources provided by the DL program and will return them at the end of the school year or if my child is withdrawn from the program.
