DISCIPLINE/BEHAVIOR POLICY

To ensure a positive, productive, and enjoyable camp experience for all participants, it is important that all campers’ parents and guardians adhere to the rules of behavior for students and privacy guidelines for parents.

Discipline/Behavior Policy

Camp staff is trained to model and enforce age-appropriate behavior guidelines and reflective communication. We encourage self-control, self-direction, responsibility, and cooperation. We will do our best to provide behavioral support to any camper demonstrating a need or disrupting the camp. Open communication between guardians and camp is considered key in terms of effective discipline.

If the child’s behavior is extremely disruptive and/or harmful to themselves or others, a parent may be asked to remove the child from camp for the remainder of the day. eta reserves the right to ask a disruptive student to withdraw from camp and if such a situation occurs, there will be absolutely no refunds issued.
