HWH Office Policies

Homework Hub Office Policies

(Required For All Students)

  • DROP OFF AND PICK UP PROCEDURES

    • When dropping off or picking up, please keep the noise level to a minimum - this is a learning environment.
    • Please pull all the way over to the shoulder when dropping off or picking up students. Please DO NOT block the driveway! It is not safe for students to be dropped off or picked up from a driving lane in the middle of traffic. 
    • Students in 7th grade and under should be escorted to and from the Homework Hub. These parents are welcome to park in our lot, although we recommend parking on Rt. 110 or on a side street. It is a very tight lot and can be tricky to see around parked vehicles when exiting the HwH parking lot. (Our personal preference is to go a few storefronts down by Minuteman and park on Rt.110 or use their parking lot. Minuteman has graciously permitted us to do so.)  Please do not park in the designated drop-off spot! 
    • Students in 8th grade and above may be dropped off at the Homework Hub sign positioned in front of the lot on Rt. 110. This sign is specifically for student drop-off. Please do not park in the designated drop-off spot!
    • For our high school drivers (as well as others), the safest place is to park on Rt. 110 or on a side street when coming to Homework Hub. This will be easier for newer drivers as it can be tricky seeing around parked vehicles when exiting the HwH parking lot. (Our personal preference is to go a few storefronts down by Minuteman and park on Rt.110 or use their parking lot. Minuteman has graciously permitted us to do so.)
    • When picking up your students, especially from review classes, anticipate a lineup of cars. Please pull to the back of the line or park in one of the places suggested above.
    • We request that you pay extra attention when driving near Homework Hub as the safety of our students is always top priority.
  • HOMEWORK HUB CALENDAR

    • The Homework Hub calendar follows the Half Hollow Hills School District.
    • Under any other circumstances, we will notify clients via email in regards to calendar changes.
  • HOMEWORK HUB CODE OF CONDUCT

    • If a student's behavior is deemed unsafe or disruptive to other students, the child will be removed from the session and a parent will be called (there will be no refunds).
    • Cell phone use is not permitted during sessions unless being used in an educational manner.

  • HOMEWORK HUB VIP

    To become a VIP at Homework Hub, families pay an annual fee of $350 for 1 child and $25 for each additional child in the same family. VIP students will receive the following benefits:

    • the ability to preview and sign up for review classes before they are released to the public;
    • no additional fee to book tutoring sessions on the day of;
    • a discount of $10 off each class when purchasing a package of 10 private classes; and
    • 2 FREE group classes. This includes Homework Help or any available (3:1) students to teacher ratio class

    *Please note: VIP families will not be given preferential treatment regarding available teachers and/or times. This will continue to be done on a first come, first served basis.

  • REGISTRATION FORMS


    • There is a $40 one-time registration fee to register for Homework Hub. (Not required for students enrolling in a review class, diagnostic exam, workshop, or trial session at Homework Hub).
    • All required Homework Hub registration forms are due before the student's first session. (Not required for students enrolling in a review class, diagnostic exam, workshop, or trial session at Homework Hub).
    • If a student does not have a discounted pre-paid package or a secure credit card on file, then full payment is due on the date of booking.
  • METHODS OF PAYMENT

    • All price quotes are for check, cash, Zelle, and Venmo payments only! (This is an incentive for check/cash/Zelle/Venmo paying customers.)
    • We accept Visa, Master Card, and American Express. There is a 3% customer service fee added to any credit/debit card payments.
    • Please keep a credit card on file to avoid a late payment charge. There is a $10 late charge for any payment not made on the day of the lesson and an additional $1 per day until full payment is made. A late payment is deemed as any payment that is not received by the end of the business day.
    •  Homework Hub (HwH) will keep your credit card information securely on file to charge your card for outstanding amounts owed. Credit card information will be encrypted and securely entered through PayTrace, which is a Level I PCI Compliant Gateway. 
    • If you are uncomfortable with leaving a credit card on file, a discounted package must be purchased ahead of time for all reoccuring appointments. If the session is a one-time slot, it must be paid for in full on the day of booking.
