The Wade Edwards Learning Lab
is the principal project of the Wade Edwards Foundation. The Foundation was established to honor the
life and spirit of Wade Edwards by supporting in other young people the pursuit
of the virtues of determination, responsibility, honor and charity. The Learning Lab exists primarily to support
and encourage the efforts of high school students striving to meet high
academic standards. For these reasons,
and out of consideration for our business and residential neighbors, it is necessary
that the Learning Lab maintain a quiet working environment. Therefore, we ask that members of the
Learning Lab’s community conduct themselves with dignity, self-respect and self
control and that that they adhere strictly to the following rules (over)
If found,

building. This includes: not rolling around in the chairs and not banging on

i Smoking is not
allowed in or around the building
i Students cannot
make outgoing calls from WELL phones.
Consequently, they must often use pay phones to contact parents and
guardians. Be sure to have sufficient
money to contact parents, etc. when necessary.
Failure to obey the rules will result in
loss of privileges and removal from the building.
For Parents and Guardians
You can do much to help the
WELL staff achieve its goal of providing your children a productive academic
working environment by working with them and with us. We ask the following of you:
1.
Review the
information your student has provided to ensure its accuracy.
2.
We broadcast live
pictures from the WELL on the Internet.
To see what your student may be up to, check out www.wade.org and follow
the appropriate links.
3.
Review the WEL
rules with your student and reinforce the importance of abiding by them.
4.
If you plan to
pick up your student from the WELL after your workday, devise an alternate plan
in case he or she finishes working early or in case it should be necessary for
him or her to leave the building.
5.
Students can not
make outgoing calls from WELL phones. Consequently, they must often use pay
phones to contact parents and guardians.
Help them by ensuring that they have sufficient money to contact you
when necessary.
6.
When dropping off
or picking up your students, please drive to the REAR parking lot to lessen
congestion in front of the building.
7.
When picking your
students up, PLEASE DO NOT HONK for them: 1) they cannot always hear you honk;
2) it creates a stir in the building and disrupts the working environment; 3)
it disturbs the neighboring residents and businesses.
8.
Occasionally the
media asks to interview students at the WELL.
Do you give permission for such interviews? _____ Do you give
permissions for video or photographs? ______
9.
Parent volunteers
are always welcome, whether for one hour or on a regular basis. We particularly need help monitoring the
lobby and the study hall. You could make
a significant contribution to the lives of your students and their
friends. Any parent who would like to
volunteer some time at the WELL should contact Steven at (919) 856-9355.
I have read the WELL Rules
carefully and agree to abide by them.
