Note from Pastor Matt
Hello Parents and Children’s Ministry Volunteers,
Recently, we launched a new Check-In system with great success! The main objective was to figure out any glitches in the software and printing, and to get several of us accustomed to checking in. Thank you for being great at adapting to this new system.
I know this will be one more step for us to complete in our already busy lives, but what it accomplishes for us and our visitors is important.
- Check-Ins helps us ensure that children are securely brought to class and picked up by an authorized adult.
- It reassures parents and especially visitors that there are checks and balances in place for taking care of what are their most valuable possessions. Many parents visiting will not return for a second visit if they feel their child is not safe.
- And finally it helps us keep track of attendance, class sizes and can be used for additional children events.
The system is very intuitive for Parents and Guardians:
1) For Members Type in your name or child's name, choose your child and class, then print.
For Visitors Follow steps in adding personal and contact info, then print.
2) A name tag per child and one check-out ticket are printed. Please then take your child to their class with their name tag and the check-out ticket will go with you for pick up.
3) At pick up time; take the check-out ticket to the class of your child/children where leaders will match up the codes.
The nursery children will wear their name tag and the school age kids name tags will be given to their leader who will place them on a clipboard or child for match up upon check out.
Thank you for assisting in this procedure. If you have any suggestions or questions, we are always available.
