GSL/PDO will send home any child, who

Please notify the Director if your child will be absent from PDO. Any child absent for 30 days without notification will be removed from the class roll, and their spot will be made available to the next name on the waiting list for that class.
A 30 day written notice is required when deactivating a child from the PDO program during a session. Without such notice parents are responsible for tuition for the following month.

name printed on the sign in (located on the table in the

child. That person must present the program with adequate
identification.
We will not send your child home with someone unfamiliar
unless the above procedure is followed.
