Individualized Education Program

It is important for teachers to be able to plan for students that require special accommodations in the classroom or for testing. If we are not informed upon registration of an IEP, we may be unable to accommodate last-minute requests.

If your child is on an Individualized Education Program (IEP) in his or her regular school, please note this below and e-mail a copy of the IEP to us at info@germanlanguageschoolcleveland.org

Help us plan successful events to bring together our school community from across the region!
Schulfest all-school barbeque

In the past, we have held a mandatory PTA meeting in the Fall, but this is no longer required by our new by-laws. Instead, we will be holding a new event in the Fall, inviting students and families from both locations to attend a barbeque to celebrate the start of the school year.

A school update will be presented by the Board of Trustees at this event, with the opportunity to ask questions. This school kickoff barbeque will be held at a central location on a weekend shortly after the start of classes. More information will be sent out as it becomes available, and we hope to see you there!

To maximize attendance, please fill out the questions below regarding the dates that would work for you.

Textbooks
Many classes carry the textbook over from one year to the next, but for those classes which require a new textbook, you may either purchase your books yourself (links are available on the website here: https://www.germanschoolcle.org/books/ ), or join a group order through school, which will be placed when school begins in the Fall, once we know how many students need which books. Payment for those joining the group order will be due when the textbooks arrive. Depending on prevailing source pricing, we expect a set of books for children to cost approximately $50. The books should arrive by the third day of school, and students without books can work off copies until then.
I have the books already, or will purchase them myselfI will join the school's group order and pay when the books arrive.
T-Shirt Order

To avoid stocking too many or too few of particular t-shirt sizes, we will place a bulk order of our school t-shirts based on the number needed by our students and their families. This is due to the rising cost of t-shirts. The price will be $25 per t-shirt, and distribution will take place after school starts, or after the order arrives from our supplier, whichever comes last.

Click here to open a new window and the T-shirt order form.
Volunteering

In order to maintain low tuition rates and involve parents in our school community, we ask for volunteer help for various tasks. Possible volunteer roles include set-up or tear down of celebrations and events, helping in the library or classroom, or tidying up at the end of classes. If you are interested in being contacted with volunteer opportunities, please indicate that below, and we will keep you informed as more details are available.
Yes, I am interested in volunteer opportunities for the 2026/27 school year.No, I am not interested this year.

Late-Pickup Policy
Purpose: In order to respect the hours of operation of our School, the following policy has been put in place. Policy: Our classes finish at 8:30 pm on Mondays in Novelty, and at 9:00 pm on Wednesdays in Olmsted Falls.

All children are expected to be picked up by a parent or authorized guardian promptly by the scheduled end time.

Late-Pickup Policy Fee: After the 10-minute mark, a $1.00 per minute late fee is charged.

A "no exceptions" policy makes it easier to apply the late policy to everyone fairly. Procedure: If a parent/guardian has not picked up a child within 10 minutes of the scheduled end time, and we are not able to reach the parents/guardians, we will call Child Protective Services and/or the local Police Department.

If a parent/guardian arrives late to pick up a child, the teacher assigned to supervise the remaining child/children will complete a Late-Pickup Report, and the parent/guardian will be asked to sign it. Parents/Guardians will then be asked to pay the late-pickup policy fee to the German Language School Cleveland by check or cash immediately or the following week at the latest.

Consistent late pickups may lead to dismissal from our program.
