To our Assumption Church Family
I hope you are all enjoying the summer!
I wanted to send out some information for our Greek School program. Please share this information with anyone you know who might be interested in our Greek School.
Program Schedule
Afternoon School classes will be meeting 2 days/week: Tuesdays and Thursdays.
On Tuesdays, classes will be in person from 4:30-6:00pm.
On Thursdays, classes will be taught via Zoom from 4:30-5:30pm.
Our Adult Classes will be meeting via Zoom from 6:00-7:00pm on Thursdays.
Registration and Materials Fee
Registration for our program is due no later than Sunday, September 19th.
Here is the link for the Registration Form: 2021-2022 Registration Form.
Please download the form, and submit it to the Church. Ministry Fair is on Sunday, Sept 12th and 19th. You can submit your form/fees at that time.
Our Registration and Materials Fee has increased and I would like to explain this decision. First, we needed to increase the pay that our teachers are receiving. Our teachers are not nearly getting the rate as compared to small group or individual tutors. Our class sizes are very small ranging from 4-9 students. There have been some years that classes had only 1 student! This small class size offers your children more individualized instruction. Moreover, our teachers have been and will continue to be involved in professional development that includes the use of the digital platform. This time of learning is outside the normal curriculum.
Secondly, our program is increasing in the number of hours of instruction. We are moving to 2 days each week, one of which is in person, and the other is through Zoom. We are moving towards having over 75 hours of instruction this year, as compared to less than 40 hours that we have had in the previous years.
Please know that if you need any financial assistance, you may contact Fr. Peter to discuss your situation.
