Important Changes to Sunday School Operations

ASM Parents,

The White House and the Shed are no longer available for use by the Sunday School as the White House is being upgraded and the Shed will be torn down. This will impact the Sunday School. We will need to temporarily split the Sunday School to AM and PM sections. We scheduled a meeting with parents of students who are impacted by this on 12-18 and communicated the changes to them and have spoken to all the teachers impacted by this. We will implement this policy starting Jan 8.

Level 1 through 6 will be from 9:30AM to 12:15PM and Level 7-9 will be from 12:45PM to 2:45PM. Starting Sep 2012, InshAllah we will get two new trailers and we will have no need to split and we will have the school back at the same time for all levels. In February,  we will also get the White House renovated and will be able to use it InshAllah. Please make a note of the schedule changes for your students. The class schedule is as follows:

Morning Section 9:30 AM to 12:15 PM

1. Level 2A/2B will be combined and classes will be held in Trailer East (in front of men’s side)
2. Level 1A/1B will be combined and classes will be held in Trailer West
3. Level 3 will move to the ISGP house Main Hall
4. Level 4 will be moved to ISGP house new small room. Some students will be moved to level 5. Sr. Rania will decide who
