There are several things parents can do to help us keep everyone safe and programs run as smoothly as possible. Please indicate you understand the following:
*Snacks are offered only for children up to age 11 in the Children’s Suite. If my child is in the Tweener’s Suite and is staying both services, I may send a snack clearly marked with their name. Snacks are not allowed in the John 9:3 classroom. Please do not bring treats to share.
*Parents need to take their child to the restroom before dropping them off. If your child is prone to accidents, send a change of clothing. Parents may be called to assist with bathroom/diaper needs if medical equipment is involved or the student is older.
Consent for Treatment in Event of Accident/Injury  In the event of an accident or injury, I hereby give my permission for the physician/dentist selected by Stonebriar Community Church (SCC) to secure proper treatment for the above-listed person as deemed necessary.  I also authorize SCC staff and volunteers to administer medical aid as required for injury in the event that I cannot immediately be contacted.
*A "yes" is your signature that you've read and agree.
