Tribes: We have team squads with captains, bi-monthly themes and challenges with rewards to motivate students. Points are earned for class attendance, winning challenges, having proper attire/equipment, demonstrating black belt attitude and completing tasks on time. Points may also be deducted. Every 2 months at testing time we will rotate the members, pick new captains, change team names and set new rewards.
Homework Time: We will give your child 30 minutes to work on their homework or read a book. The students are to remain seated and quiet during this time. We unfortunately cannot guide or direct them through their homework.
Electronic Devices: Electronic devices are allowed but only during tech/free time. We are not responsible for damage or loss of devices. If devices are being used at the wrong time they will be collected and returned to a parent. Karate Atlanta does provide a few devices for online homework.
Student Pick-up: Students can be picked up at any time but should not be picked up in the middle of a class. Please let us know ahead of time if you want them to stay out of a class due to a early pickup. Students must be picked up by 5:30. Late pickup may result in additional fees and/or suspension from the program.
Attire: Full uniform is required Monday-Thursday. Karate t-shirts are acceptable on Fridays and on T-shirt days that days listed on the monthly calendar. Shorts are acceptable on camp days and Fridays.
Equipment/Gear: Students are responsible to have the proper weapons and required equipment. They may store their bags at the karate school. We are not responsible for missing or damaged equipment.
Early Release: We will offer a camp that extends from release time until 5:30 on any day that Fayette County Schools are released early. Full time ATA Members enrolled in ASKTP will receive this service for free.
Absence: We need to know in advance if your child will not be attending the program for that day. We are on a very tight schedule and need to make sure that we pick up every child on time. Regardless of attendance the full monthly amount will still be due.
Payments: Monthly tuition is Due by the 5th of each month. A late fee maybe added if your account is not kept in good standing. Discounts are available for additional family members, being a full time ATA member, or paying 1 school year tuition in advance.
Cancellation: This is a month to month program. A 30 day written notice and completing a cancellation form is required.
