Emergency & Security Policies
Emergency Procedures
Our facility posts an emergency plan in each room detailing procedures in handling emergencies such as fire, weather-related events, and medical crises. Should an emergency occur, remember to stay calm, use common sense, and follow the Head Instructors directions and the posted instructions. In case of an emergency, evacuated instructors and students should assemble down the street in front of Main Street Square.
Student Drop Off & Pick Up
To ensure the safety of all minor students we have implemented the following drop off and pick up policies.
Doors to the facility will be open approximately 30 minutes before the scheduled class time.
All guardians are required to come into the facility to drop off/pick up their child.
All students should be dropped off and picked no more than 15 minutes before their class start time, and no less than 15 minutes after their class end time.
Any student not picked up within their 15 minutes grace period will be charged $2 per minute.
Students will not be released to someone who is not their guardian, or who is not listed on the Drop Off & Pick-up Release Form.
Inclement Weather
From time to time we will be adversely impacted by inclement weather. Our official policy follows that of the Rapid City Public Schools. If Rapid City Public Schools are cancelled or let out early for weather, FCMAA classes will not be held. If any other weather circumstance should arise, FCMAA will do its best to notify all students of cancellations. We will update the online Live Gym Calendar, send out class emails, and post updates on our Facebook page. It is the responsibility of the guardian or student to check the Live Gym Calendar.
Bullying & Offensive Behavior
FCMAA is committed to providing a training environment that is free from all forms of discrimination, harassment, and bullying. FCMAA has a zero tolerance policy. Discriminatory, harassing, or bullying actions, words, jokes, or comments whether verbal or written will not be tolerated.
If any guardian or student experiences or witnesses what they believe to be discrimination, harassment, or bullying they should report it immediately to their Head Instructor. If the Head Instructor is unavailable they should immediately contact their Master Instructor.
All allegations of discrimination, harassment, or bullying will be promptly, fairly, and discreetly investigated. When the investigation is completed, guardians and students will be informed of the outcome of the investigation.
Anyone engaging in discrimination, harassment, or bullying will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including suspension from training.
Drug & Alcohol-Free Training Space
We are dedicated to providing a safe and drug/alcohol-free training space. Therefore, FCMAA prohibits the use, possession, transfer, dispensation, distribution, sale, or manufacture of illegal drugs or alcohol while on FCMAA property. All guardians and students are prohibited from being under the influence while at FCMAA facility. If you fail to comply with this policy, we will take disciplinary action, up to and including suspension from training.
Smoking & Tobacco Free Training Space
The use of smokeless tobacco or vapor/e-cigarettes is banned in all areas on FCMAA property. Disregarding this policy will result in disciplinary action, up to and including suspension from training.
Health & Student Safety
FCMAA wants all guardians and students to be healthy, safe, and feel supported. To help promote a healthy training space we require that all students who are sick, are kept at home. By staying home at the first sign of sickness, you are reducing the spread of illness to others.
If a student becomes sick while in class, we will determine if they are too sick to participate in the remainder of class. FCMAA will make every attempt to call the student’s guardian for pick up. In the event of a serious illness or injury, if the guardian cannot be reached in time, the student may be transported to the nearest hospital or emergency care facility for immediate care and treatment.
