The Director, Assistant Director, & the Board-At- Large process all applications and handle the day to day upkeep of the files. In the event that the board must vote on your application (for unusual circumstances), vote to place your membership on probationary status, and/or to terminate your membership then all seven voting board members will have the information needed to do so.

All board members are moderators and they have access to any information you post on any of the CHASE SC email loops, and your email address. All board members sign a statement of confidentiality.

"We assure you that ALL names, addresses, phone numbers and other membership information will remain confidential; we do not sell, rent or share our member mailing list. All Board members sign a statement of confidentiality, before serving their tenor."

Membership coverage in an association that completes the requirements of 59-65-47 is your primary benefit. We provide numerous resources on how to prepare transcripts, where to get information on testing, basic forms, special needs information, a newsletter group that keeps you updated and informed by CHASE SC, a members only email loop to discuss issues about homeschooling. We provide you with your Lifetime Membership Certificate, Membership Cards, and a Letter of Acceptance. As time and funds permit, the board may offer workshops, seminars, and/or classes for the homeschooling family. Members will receive a discount with HSLDA (minimum number of members with HSLDA must be met first), and other businesses and stores that accept your CHASE SC card for their homeschooling or teacher discount.

The Founding Board At Large board members (the current Director is one) have effectively worked with both agencies in their previous three years of operation. Additionally, both of the Founding Board At Large members have worked with DSS as both foster parents and adoptive parents for a number of years.

If any information on the application is found to be false your membership may be terminated, returned checks not reimbursed (along with the $25 returned fee charge) within 30 days will result in termination of Lifetime Family Membership, or failure to comply with any of CHASE SC's policies may result in your homeschool being terminated.

Lifetime membership coverage is for both parent(s)/teacher(s) listed on the CHASE SC Lifetime Membership Application Form. You will be a member for as long as you homeschool your children, foster children (as long as the law allows it, and you have DSS permission), or other children that you have been appointed by the court as the guardian.

All children listed on the application are members while in Kindergarten - 12th grades and being homeschooled. Any child/ren born, adopted, or foster child/ren placed in your home (as long as the law allows it, and you have DSS permission) after your original Lifetime Membership Application Form has been submitted, are eligible for membership. You must include them on the Yearly Statement of Completion/Update of Information and they must be in Kindergarten - 12th grades and being homeschooled.

The parent's (teacher's) Lifetime Membership does not carry over to their children. Children's membership is for the duration that they are homeschool students.
