School Closing & Sickness Policy

In the coming winter season we wanted to post our School Closing Policy so that no one is ever left wondering if classes are canceled. Safety is ALWAYS our number one priority. If for any reason the roads become unsafe to drive then We cannot in good conscience ask for you to put yourself and your family at risk to come to class. Therefore, we are implementing this School Closing Policy effective immediately:

Family First Martial Arts Training Centers of Middle TN will cancel classes for the following reasons:
1. If Williamson County Schools AND Franklin Special School District Close due to weather related issues such as snow, flood, tornado etc.
a. 2 Hour delays do NOT classify as a school closing therefore Family First Martial Arts will conduct classes as scheduled.
b. Mid-Day cancellations of Williamson County Schools AND Franklin Special School District for the reasons of weather will result in Family First Martial Arts CANCELING Classes.
2. Holidays.
a. Memorial Day
b. July 4th
c. Labor Day
d. Thanksgiving
e. Christmas Eve – Christmas
f. New Years Eve – New Years Day
i. Family First will close Christmas Eve through New Years Day. For the 2011 – 2012 Year we will be closed Thursday Dec 22 through Sunday January 1. We will reconvene on Monday January 2

Whenever Family First cancels classes for school closing please feel free to make up your classes on any day that is convienent for you.

Parents, I can not stress the issue of safety enough. The above policy is in place and is the guideline that will be followed by Family First. If you ever feel that it is unsafe for you to come to class and we are still having classes, don’t feel obligated to come in. Your judgement will always be the best judgement. You can make up your class if you desire.

Family First Martial Arts Sick Policy.
If you or your child is sick, may be getting sick or just getting over being sick, please stay home. If your body is fighting an illness, the stress of classes can weaken your body causing injury. The risk of spreading illness is greatly increased due to heavy respiratory activities as well as close contact with other students. Make sure you are well enough to come back to class.
