    GENERAL REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS 2010-2011

This section outlines the procedure for HEED registration. Placement of students in classes at HEED is determined by many factors. Class size is limited and many sections will fill immediately. Please be aware that we are only able to accommodate a limited number of families.



New Families - Important

1. All students new to HEED are required to submit a letter of recommendation from current HEED families by March 23rd and should contact HEED Directors to schedule an interview. (Please e-mail to heeddirectors@gmail.com)

2. New families may be asked to meet for an interview March 23rd or April 6th.

All Registering Students

1. When registering for classses, please be mindful of the following important HEED policies:

Parental Involvement: As with all home education classes, parents are the primary educators, administrators, and disciplinarians of their students. The HEED instructor is the tutor teaching the student in class, while the parent oversees and leads the student during the week. Parents will need to remain involved by: being aware of assignments, due dates, and student progress, as well as providing help for their individual student when needed. Keeping up on all assignments and handing in work on time is crucial for the success of the class and for the course to progress along throughout the year.

Children younger than a traditional 6th grade student will not be considered for placement. Students are not permitted to be at HEED without a parent, unless they are in class. If a student has a free period, he/she must be picked up or arrangements must be made with an adult on the premises to supervise them at all times. No exceptions please.

Please Note: HEED is not equipped to have students, multiple sublings, and families stay in the gym for consecutive free periods. For example, if your student has only a first period class and a fourth period class, the parent may come and supervise him/her at HEED during that free time. If it is necessary to bring the whole family alont to supervise their free periods he/she should be picked up for their free time and brought back for their class.

Complete & Mail HEED Registration Forms & Fees (Due Nov. 16th)

(if already enrolled in HEED skip this step)

* Once an applicant receives confirmation in a class, and after reading the HEED Handbook and the HEED Code of Conduct, the parents, along with the student, must then complete a HEED registration form. Please note that all students and parents (new and returning) must read the 2009-2010 HEED Handbook and Code of Conduct before signing the registration form. The HEED registration form and non refundable registration fee must be submitted no later than May 8th or that student may be dropped from class(es). The 2009-2010 registration fees for HEED are $25.00 per student or $45.00 per family. Registration forms are available on-line "Here" and on the "Downloads" page..


Teachers Deposits Due (Nov. 16th)

* To secure a student's place in a class, a non-refundable deposit of $50.00 (for a one semester class) is due to the instructor by Nov. 16th. The remaining balance for each class will be paid directly to the instructor by Dec. 1st or the student may be dropped from the class. Instructors are responsible for setting their tuition rates and for collecting payments. Financial aid applications are available on the "Downloads" page and must be submitted by Nov. 2nd. Donations for financial aid are always welcome.


Tuition refunds are not available once a class begins. Our instructors expect that when a student enrolls he/she will complete the course. When that changes all are potentially affected.
