Hello Parents and Students!
Welcome to the Spring 2023 Semester at Ashton Ranch Week and Kingswood with Sensei Joeffrey Abitong Sr. Please read IMPORTANT NOTICE weekly. All children must be checked-in online, AND in-person in order for us to get a proper attendance count. On the first day of your child/children's class they will be automatically checked in ONLINE, as you have paid for registration which includes the class fee and the registration fee. If you have paid for the whole semester PLEASE be sure to check-in IN PERSON with the secretaries as you arrive at the location. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.

- Parent Helpers AT NO TIME may discipline students, always alert the instructor to problems. ALWAYS BE COURTEOUS & POLITE WHEN TALKING WITH STUDENTS & PARENTS.
- Please use a calm and reassuring tone of voice while talking to students.
- Use positive reinforcement towards students. EXAMPLE "Good job, you're doing very well!" NEVER "belittle a student".
- Parent Helpers must always go in pairs when escorting students to bathrooms. If no other parent helpers are available, have the class secretary or advanced student assist you.
- Please be as quiet as possible during class/practice, noisy helpers will be asked to wait outside.
- Parent Helpers at no time may get into inventory/merchandise, drop box, or class materials without consent of the instructor.
- Please dress in appropriate clothing to assist. EXAMPLE: do not wear bikini tops, mini skirts, T-shirts with foul language, etc.
HELPFUL TASKS TO ASSIST DURING INSTRUCTION
- DOOR GUARD: Primary duty is to effectively guard all exits, do not allow students to leave the facility unless with a parent/guardian.
