Permissions and Rights
Do we have your permission to use your child's likenesses?
*
Yes
No
We often employ video and still photos as teaching tools in Sunday School. In addition, we take photos to inform parents, members of the First UU community and those who visit our website of what's happening in Sunday School. We don’t use identifying information. By this registration you give permission for us to use your children’s image as described above, unless you check no.
Family Rights & Responsibilities at First UU Columbus
PROGRAM KNOWLEDGE: You may know about our philosophy, methodology, and policies regarding safety and discipline. Parents are welcome to visit at any time. For safety’s sake, please introduce yourself.
SAFETY: Two adults or one adult & one youth — who will have signed our code of ethics and have undergone a criminal background check — will lead every Sunday School class with care and attention to the needs of everyone.
CONFIDENTIALITY: Sensitive concerns that you share with the RE Staff, Teachers or Team will be confidential, except as mandated by state law for reporting or as necessary to save lives.
REGISTRATION: Students must be registered every year, providing current contact, special needs & family structure information.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT: A regular pledge based on your finances is expected of every family, whether adults chose to become members or not.
TIME AND TALENT SUPPORT: Volunteering in RE is expected. We recommend that parents be part of a teaching team every third year to better understand the program and take on lesser roles in other years.
SUPERVISION: At all times when on church grounds, children must be supervised. When children are not in class, parents/guardians are responsible for their safety. Children aged 10 and younger may not be dropped off at church. Special arrangements may be made to designate a “church guardian.” If you can be available by cell during Sunday School it will make it easier to reach you in an emergency.
DROPOFF/PICKUP: Children under age 7 must be signed in and out of their Sunday School classes by a parent or guardian.
ASSUME BEST PARENTING: We have a variety of parenting styles and beliefs about good parenting at First UU. There can be occasion for conflicts among parents. Absent abuse, either verbal or physical, which must be reported, assume best parenting intentions.
Please check each box to denote that you read it.
