Rules & Policies
Our goal is to provide a fun and safe environment
for those who visit the Conversation Station. These rules and policies also help our adult volunteers to provide
the best possible supervision.
- Membership is
open to children in 4th grade and above.
- Upon arrival,
students are required to sign-in with first and last name along with time of arrival. Once you come to the Conversation
Station, we ask you to remain.
- Students are only
permitted to leave the Conversation Station one time per day.

a student chooses to leave, they are required to inform the appropriate adult volunteer. The volunteer will place
