This year, we are setting up our preschool and elementary classes a bit differently than past years. Instead of having a team of teachers, we will be counting on parents and volunteers to sign up for class sessions each week. Lori Allen, Director of Youth and Children’s Ministries (DYCM), will be leading many of the class sessions. After a year of building renovations that took a lot of the DYCM work time, a commitment to focus more on our preschool and elementary families will be made this year. Diana, our UUFA Projects Coordinator, has created Signup Genius sites where you can sign up to lead a class. All the curriculums are online, either at the UUA or UUFA website.
