Policies and Procedures
Special Notice: 糖果vlog官网网页版 Child Care Grant Pandemic Policy
With permission from the North Carolina Community College System Office, in the event of a pandemic that affects a student鈥檚 schedule by moving online, 糖果vlog官网网页版 will honor the regularly scheduled payment amount during that time. As classes resume again on campus our previous North Carolina Community College Child Care Grant policy will apply as normal with only half of a student鈥檚 classes can be online.
During the time of a pandemic we will also waive the 80% attendance policy requirement. This will allow flexibility for our students to take their child to day care as they are open.
