Lifespan Religious Education
General Information

Registration
Registration for all children and youth is required annually. Registration places your family on the R.E. mailing list and ensures that you will receive all mailings relating to your child's class, curriculum-related mailings, field trips, and special RE events. Also, registration informs us about any special needs, allergies, etc. that we need to be aware of concerning your child. Open a registration form in HTML format here and send it in or drop it off on Sunday.

Attendance
In order to provide a sense of community in the classroom and continuity in course content, consistent attendance is important. We realize that not everyone can be here every week. Please let your child's teacher or your adult group facilitator know your attendance schedule so s/he can plan accordingly.

Visitors and Newcomers
We welcome visits from those who are discovering our R.E. programs for children and youth. We encourage newcomers to complete a visitor information form. To facilitate a warm, positive introduction for visiting children or youth, we suggest that parents or guardians introduce themselves to our Director of Religious Education, members of the RE Committee, and your children's teachers. Parents are always welcome to visit their children's classrooms. Please feel free to ask questions about our program.

Parent Responsibilities
Prior to R.E. classes or activities, and after 12:15, children and youth are the responsibility of the parent or other adult who brought them to church. Please be courteous to your children's teachers by picking up your children promptly by 12:15 so that our teachers may enjoy the social hour. Our R.E. program relies on parent volunteers. We ask that all parents donate a minimum of 4 hours of volunteer time each semester, as well as drinks and non-perishable snacks for Sunday morning classes.

For youth outings and events that take place off the church grounds, parents will need to complete and sign a permission form.1884
