TRANSITIONING GUIDELINES
FROM GROUP TO GROUP...
To support our children as they grow from one level of learning to the next, we recognize there may be special circumstances that exist for a child such as school difficulties, cognitive or social issues, traumatic injuries, and other such issues. In an effort to assist our children and teens and ensure they are supported, we adhere to the following standard of practice:
1. Without intervening issue, children generally transition with their school grade level.
2. When issues exist in the school setting, such as being retained in a grade, the Children's or Youth Pastor will meet with the parent or guardian to determine the best placement for the child/youth.
3. When medically influenced issues such as cognitive delay or mental health issues exist, the Children's or Youth Pastor will meet with the parent or guardian to discuss the child/youth's needs and determine the best plan for supporting the child/youth in spiritual and social growth. Our ministry team will work to accommodate situations as we are prayerfully able.
