MS/HS Parent & Student Agreements 2026-2027

Mission Statement: CHEB exists to glorify God bringing homeschool families together to encourage parents, support students, and provide educational and fellowship opportunities.

Introduction: This Parent Agreement outlines the expectations and responsibilities of both CHEB and our members for the successful academic and spiritual growth of students. By enrolling your child at CHEB, you agree to uphold these standards and work in partnership with us to provide a nurturing, Christian environment. Parents are ultimately their student's teacher and make the final determination on grades and level of course completion, and parents are responsible for maintaining their own student attendance records and transcripts.

1. Christian Faith and Values

We believe that faith and education go hand in hand. As a Christian co-operative, we seek to honor God in all aspects of our curriculum, relationships, and activities.

Commitment to Faith: Parents acknowledge the school's commitment to biblical principles in teaching and student life. While we come from many different denominations, we generally respect the tenants of our host church, Tates Creek Christian Church. TCCC Beliefs
Support of Christian Values: Parents agree to support the integration of Christian values in their child’s education, both in school and at home.
Church Attendance: We encourage families to be actively involved in a local Christian church.

2. Academic Expectations

We strive for excellence in education and encourage all students to reach their full academic potential.

Support for Learning: CHEB instructors will assign work for students to complete during the week. Parents will support their child’s academic efforts by helping with homework, ensuring timely completion of assignments, and fostering an attitude of responsibility. Parents agree to stay advised on their students performance/grades via their students’ Canvas accounts. Repeated late or missed assignments may affect a student's enrollment in subsequent classes.
Communication: Parents agree to maintain open communication with teachers and school staff regarding their child’s academic progress, check emails from CHEB, and respond to communications from administrators or instructors in a timely manner. Students are encouraged to email teachers directly with questions or concerns regarding assignments.

Attendance and Punctuality: Parents agree to ensure that their child arrives at school on time and maintains good attendance. If absence is necessary, parents will notify the administrators and instructors in advance.

Five (5) or more absences during the semester, may affect a student's enrollment in subsequent classes.
