SUMMER CAMP PROGRAM
DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR POLICY
Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces strives to provide a safe environment
for our program participants and staff. Parent cooperation and involvement is vital to the
success of our programs. We ask that parents read and discuss the rules and policies to their
child(ren). Park staff will use positive discipline techniques and corrective actions (e.g., positive
reinforcement, firm statements, and redirection) when working with Participants to enforce
appropriate behaviors. Although Staff is committed to correct inappropriate behavior, any
behavior that becomes offensive, disrupts the program, or endangers the well-being of an
individual will not be tolerated. If a Participant’s behavior endangers the safety of the
Participants/Staff around him/her, the program Supervisor has the right to terminate services
for the Participant. Each incident will be addressed on an individual basis according to the
severity of the behavior and at the discretion of the program supervisor. Group supervision is
provided for Participants; we are not staffed for one-on-one supervision. All behavioral issues
will be documented and discussed with the Parent/Legal Guardian. If necessary, a behavior
modification program will be developed and implemented. If inappropriate behavior continues,
the following consequences may occur: verbal warnings, supervised time away from the
program, limited/reduced time that the participant is allowed to attend the program, suspension
from the program, or removal from the program.
I understand that if my child continuously disrupts the daily operations of the program or causes ongoing
disciplinary problems, he/she may be asked to withdraw from the program without a refund.
