About the Christian Homeschool Association for Teens (Member Registration follows this intro)
1. CHAT is for homeschool students only, age 13 yrs. through
high school seniors, with exceptions for graduated homeschool students made on
a case by case basis. Once a homeschool alumnus marries, they are no longer a
part of CHAT; even if they fit the age limits.
2. CHAT is a Christian group in attitude and life; however we do not promote or
express any individual churches or group's beliefs. Member's actions within the
group should reflect our desire to live and treat each other in a Christ like
manner. We feel that spiritual training is the family's right and responsibility,
not CHAT's.
3. CHAT is primarily a social group; however we also will offer educational
opportunities, service activities, classes, or field trips as they are arranged
by our members, as long as the activity fits with the above criteria.
4. CHAT is a member run group. This means that the Calendar Coordinator (a.k.a. "The Troll")
is not
responsible to arrange, plan or to chaperon activities. The member who
organizes the activity is responsible. They may ask any responsible
parent to chaperon, including the Calendar Coordinator. The Troll may
ask members to
arrange activities for the group. To avoid schedule conflicts, ALL
activities must be coordinated and scheduled through the Calendar
Coordinator.
(
calendar.troll@gmail.com ) *We
do not have a formal parent board; however we do have a core group of parents
(of involved teens) who have volunteered to organize various aspects of CHAT.
5. All CHAT activities must have the approval of the Calendar Coordinator to be
called an official CHAT event and to be listed in the CHAT e-mails.
6. CHAT event notification to the group as a whole is to be done only by the The Troll. Because of this, details for all planned CHAT activities
must be submitted to the Coordinator
by the 25th
of each month.
7. Ballroom
Dance class information will be sent out in August and classes will begin
between Labor Day and Sept 15, most likely. Everyone who is
interested may take the class. Thus far, there has never been too many
students signed up :-) The dance class coordinator will be planning
with the dance studio and most likely classes will be Mondays between the times
of 10 am - 1 pm. They are 45 minute classes one day per week.
Thanks for your interest in CHAT!
Yours,
Mr and Mrs David Seelye
