Attendance Policies

These attendance policies are important because of our large waiting lists for many classes. Thank you for your help with these things!
If you will be absent – tell your class leader (email or phone call is ok)
If you are going to be absent for more than 2 weeks at one time (vacation, morning sickness, etc) – tell your class leader (email or phone call is ok).
If you are very sick or need help in an emergency, please call and tell us how we may help you or pray for you. We think of you as our friend and we will be concerned if we do not see you.
American Cooking Class will have its own attendance policy. The Cooking Class leader will give you this information.

Dropping A Class

If you can no longer attend the class, please tell your class leader or the International Office. We will add someone form the waiting list.

First Day

You do not need to bring anything with you to the first class. Our returning friends know that we enjoy a casual, home atmosphere in our classes. If you are new this year, please feel free to dress casually! Your class leader will let you know if you need to dress differently for a special occasion.
