Family Participation
First Baptist Church Children's Center
  

Family participation is vital to a successful early childhood
program. It is also a key component in maintaining our
National Accreditation standing. Parents play an important
role in enriching their children’s educational experiences.
Family participation in an early childhood program creates
a sense of joint responsibility that is shared by parents and
teachers for the child. We know that parents who get
involved in the
education of their preschool children stay
involved once their children go on to “Big School”.

We ask parents/family members to donate 1 hour per month
as a parent volunteer. Parent Interest Sheets are available
so that parents can consider how they would like to help
during the school year and the times that best fit their
schedules.

Some possible volunteer opportunities:

  • Classroom Captain

  • Lunch Helper (first and second lunch times available)

  • Wednesday Library Walks

  • Thursday City Market Walks (Spring & Summer)

  • Kindermusik Helper

  • General Classroom or Office Volunteer

  • Special Event Volunteer (Fall Festival, Picture Day, etc.)

  • Field Trip Assistance

         We recognize that parents bring their children to
      First Baptist Church Children’s Center because they
    must work. However, there are numerous opportunities
          available for volunteers that can be tailored to
                             fit individual schedules.
