Summer School Basic Information

 We would like to share with you the basics of what your child will be doing this week and what things he or she needs to accomplish in order to reach certain goals.  We will also share the important times you should be aware of.

Testing

Testing will follow all of the same minimum requirements as a normal testing schedule:

 White - Yellow                   16 classes            Blue and Green Stripes

Orange – Sr. Orange          20 classes            Blue, Black and Green Stripes

Green – Sr. Green              24 classes            Blue, Black and Green Stripes

Blue – Sr. Blue                   28 classes            Blue, Black, Red, and Green Stripes

Brown – Sr. Brown            32 classes            Blue, Black, Red and Green Stripes

 Please understand that your children will be participating in five Taekwondo classes for 4 days, which means they will be learning their techniques at an accelerated rate.  This also means that your child will have to put forth great effort in order to memorize his or her techniques if they are to be prepared to test on Friday.  Children have different abilities to absorb their Taekwondo techniques and it is possible that they will work hard and try their best and still not be ready to test on Friday.  Most children learn their techniques over the course of two months therefore 4 days of intense training may be difficult, but incredibly rewarding whether they test or not.

Testing papers will be handed out on Monday (testing is optional) and to be turned in on Friday morning before the class.  They will be given test questions to study but they will only be required to memorize a small amount of them.

Important Dates and Times to Remember

• If you would like us to work on something specific with your children please write us a note of what you would like (ex:  listening first time).  Also please write a note to let us know if your child is ready for their yellow stripe and red stripe before Friday
• Please make note that all drop-off times will be between 8:30 ~ 9:00 am and the first class will begin at 9:00 am.  Pick up times Monday through Thursday will be from 2:40 ~3:00 pm.
• Friday’s schedule is slightly different:  Drop-off between 8:30 ~ 9:00 am.  At 11:00 pm we will begin the belt test, which should last between hour to an hour and 30 minutes.  We will have a small pizza party afterward and then the belt ceremony following the party.  Pick up time for all children will be from 1:00 ~ 1:30 pm on Friday.
