 Additional information on NYPD discipline policy found in registration packet
Every camper has a right to attend NYPD without being subjected to threat of injury or intimidation in any fashion. Incidents of fighting, physical assault, verbal intimidation, and other negative offenses that reference sex, age, color, religion, national origin, or disability are not acceptable. In addition, all staff and campers must be allowed to live in an environment free from unsolicited harassment. Harassment is behavior which is not welcome, which is personally offensive, which debilitates morale, and which interferes with the living environment of all campers. A safe and friendly atmosphere is the responsibility of all campers and staff at NYPD Camp.
You and your child should understand that while participating at camp, the NYPD staff is in charge. Your child should be aware that any rules and/or instructions that are made by a staff member are to be respected. In the unfortunate event that there is a disciplinary problem that cannot be resolved, the parent will be notified and expected to pick up his/her child immediately.
