Youth Ministry Registration Guidelines
-
-
If a youth attends a public or private school, the youth needs to register for his or her youth ministry program and grade level that matches the academic grade in which they attend school.
If a youth homeschools, the youth needs to register for the grade level that they would be in if attending a public or private school.- See below for the normal cut off dates to determine which academic grade the youth is in.
- If a homeschool student’s date of birth is near the cutoff date and the parents consider that child in the next grade, parents may schedule a time to speak with the formation staff to discuss the appropriate registration.
