Parent Responsibility
SCCA is a full service homeschool program. We are committed to do our best to meet your needs in educating your child. However, parents are ultimately the primary educator. Please read the following information regarding “Parent Responsibilities” upon enrolling your student in SCCA
The Parent/Teacher must have a High School Diploma or G.E.D.
Parents must provide SCCA with current address and phone number information
Student’s first set of books must be purchased within 30 days of enrollment
Parents must keep assigned payment installments up to date in order to ensure their students have work at all times. A student who has books available to work on at all times will achieve his or her academic goals more consistently.
Parents are encouraged to set goals with their students for study times, bookwork, and testing times. Take time at least once a week to review and update these goals.
Parents will keep up-to-date records of their child’s attendance and test grades. Homeschool laws in the state of Tennessee require students to record 180 days of academic activity per grade level. Attendance for one school day consists of at least 4 hours of study. SCCA will provide forms for the documentation of attendance and grades.
Parents are responsible for removing final tests from books before allowing their student to begin working in their books. The final test must not be given until the matching work book has been successfully completed. Test materials need to be kept in the supervision of a responsible parent and must be graded by a parent.
I have read and understand the above Full Service Fee and Parent Accountability information. Upon enrolling my child(ren) in SCCA, I agree to comply with the above requirements.
