- Plans are to try to extend this program out to students who have had little to no involvement in our current youth program
- Based on number signed up by Dec 31, parents will be recruited for small group.
- Mission Trip students and parents will be strongly encouraged to be involved.
- Mixed or segregated groups is an option (boys/girls) and Add/pick a buddy will be adopted.
Middle School Program Specifics:
- After much discussion, it was decided to first of all ask for interest level with sign up at Confirmation along with their phone number: ACTION: MYRON DUE DATE:ASAP
- Once we have the number of student interest, the parents will be called or will be given a survey to fill out as to when the best time would be to do the Middle School Workbook.
- Parent volunteers will also be recruited on an as needed basis.
- Focus will be on Confirmation students only (7&8) with separate Boy and Girl groups utilized (although add/pick a buddy may also be utilized).
