Parents:
Parents will not be permitted inside the instruction area during class. On occasion I will open the doors so that you may observe what your child is learning. There is also a window in the door that you may peak in if you would like to watch. You may wait in the back of our church auditorium, cry room, downstairs in the nursery or you may run errands to the many stores located near the church building.
Please be aware that we have many people working in our building during the hours that the classes are being held, so I am asking that you don’t allow younger children to roam the building unsupervised. Let’s work together to be courteous and clean up any mess your children make.
