PARENT CONCERNS When a parent has a concern/complaint please wait 24 hours and then contact a Board Member. The 24 hours will allow for everyone to deal with the issue in an appropriate manner. Please Note: We cannot help parents if they do not let us know there is an issue, complaining amongst yourselves will do no one any good, so please let us know what your concerns are thank-you. ALL coaches are not to be approached by parents at any time for complaints. If a coach is approached in this manner, it could be used to remove your child from gymnastics as it will be viewed as a 3rd Incident Bullying Infraction. We as a board will not tolerate our coaches being intimidated by parents at anytime for their coaching styles or class organization.
