  6. To be involved in the Fern Hill School Community.

  12. The Principal has the right to suspend or dismiss any student. Reasons for suspension or dismissal include, but are not limited to, scholarship or behaviour which is detrimental to the standards of the school. In the event of the student's suspension, dismissal, withdrawal, or absence from the school for any reason whatsoever, the parents or guardians shall be liable for payment of the entire annual fees. No portion of fees paid or outstanding will be refunded or cancelled. My signature below indicates my full acceptance of these obligations.
