Important School Policies
2024 C.G.A. 10-73a. - Adult education fees and charges:
East Haven Adult Education is compliant with C.G.S. 10-73a stating that tuition or registration fees shall not be charged by any school district to adults enrolled in any adult class or program required under subparagraph (A) of subsection (a) of section 10-69. Registration fees may be charged by a providing school district or cooperating eligible entity to a cooperating school district for any adult residents of such cooperating district who are enrolled in any adult class or program of adult classes maintained by such providing school district or cooperating eligible entity and required by said section.
ICE/IMMIGRATION POLICY:
The Connecticut State Department of Education guidance is “designed to ensure compliance with state and federal laws” and advises schools that the state has no obligation to collect or maintain data on students' immigration status because the Supreme Court has ruled that students have a right to attend public schools regardless of their immigration status.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY:
East Haven Adult Education is committed to a policy of equal opportunity for students who seek to obtain education with us. The East Haven Public School System and Adult Education do not discriminate in any employment practice, education program, or educational activity on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, age, national origin, ancestry, marital status, sexual orientation, disability (including but not limited to neurodivergence, past or present history of mental disability, physical disability or learning disability), genetic information, or on any other basis prohibited by Connecticut state and/or federal nondiscrimination laws.
