We wish to call your attention to the following important items:
- If you child has specific limitations which would curb his/her participation, please send the school a note. We will see that he/she is excused from any activity deemed inappropriate. Please note that Jekyll Island 4-H Center has four handicapped accessible dorm rooms, an accessible dining hall, and a beach wheelchair. Please give us advanced notice so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
- If your child is on any medication, please notify the school. Send the medicine, along with written permission and instructions, for school personnel to dispense.
- Students may not leave the designated center area without permission and supervision. Prior notice of any pick-ups is required.
- Your child will not be near a telephone for the majority of his/her stay. If you have an emergency and need to get in touch with school personnel, the Center’s number is (912) 635-4115 (or 4117). Or you may contact the Georgia State Patrol to deliver a message at (912) 635-2303.
