ATTENDANCE POLICIES
- Every student is required to submit their West Coast World Martial Arts Yearly Membership card before each class to correctly track each student’s attendance.
- Our curriculum and classes are based on consistent weekly attendance by our students.
- Students (or parents) are responsible for giving us written notice if a student is going to be out for an extended amount of time due to illness, injury or vacation.
- Curriculum DVDs are available for purchase for ranks for home practice.
- Private lessons are not available for students unless someone is coming off a prolonged absence from classes.
- Students who do not meet attendance and / or striping requirements will have their testing date(s) pushed back until all requirements are met.
VACATION FORMS
Vacation forms are available for students who are missing a prolonged amount of time due to illness, injury or travel. Due to the growing Coronavirus concern, we are accepting vacation forms for up to 4 weeks added to the end of the current active agreement with our school.
Also be aware that if a student is on a prolonged program / vacation hold, all time missed will be added to their scheduled testing target date when their program resumes so that all attendance and stripe requirements can be met before submitting a testing application.
At this time, all extension requests must be emailed to carrieann@westcoastnewark.com.
