| Our
Class Policies
Attendance
Students learn when they are actively engaged
in classes and motivated to accept the challenge
of studying. We require that students attend
classes two days or nights per week for a
total of 3 - 4 hours weekly. Attendance is
taken and students with excessive absences
will not be allowed to continue in our program.
Textbook
Purchase
Because learning continues outside the classroom
with homework and practice, we require that
students purchase the books and materials
they need for class (approximate cost $15-$20).
All materials are available at
the Literacy Centers.
Activities
Fee
Literacy Volunteers requires that all students
pay a $20/year activities fee.
No
Childcare Provided
LVGH does not currently provide childcare
services. Because we feel that students need
to concentrate on their studies, we also do
not allow children to accompany students to
class.
We offer classes both
mornings and evenings to accomodate the schedules
of working students and students with children.
Weather
Related Closings
Both the Hartford and Wickham Literacy Centers
will close when
Hartford Schools close.
Neither day nor evening
classes will be held if Hartford Schools are
closed. Evening classes will also be cancelled
if Hartford Schools cancel evening activities.
LVGH classes will NOT
be delayed when Hartford Public Schools delay
opening.
Weather related
closings will be announced on WTIC-AM 1080
radio, and
TV Channels 3 and 30.
