CHILDREN FIRST GUIDELINES FOR REGISTRATION
Waiting List: When a parent calls the office to put his/her child on the waiting list, the director writes the child's information on a Waiting List Form. This form is put into a Waiting List Book. There are two Waiting List Books: HFUMC Members and Non-HFUMC Members.
The Waiting List Book for Year Round and School Session children of HFUMC members is kept in order by the date the parent/parents put the child on the Waiting List, and then by the date they became members of Hendersonville First United Methodist Church. Everytime a parent calls, e-mails, or comes by Children First, that information is written on the Waiting List Form or printed from e-mails.
The Waiting List Book for Year Round and School Session children of non-HFUMC members is kept in order by the date the child was put on the waiting list.
Registration: Children First Registration will be held once a year beginning in February for the Summer Session that starts in June and School Schedule that starts in August.
Before Registration, the Children First Advisory Board decides on the dates of registration, and the director will inform parents regarding registration via the HFUMC Newsletter, Children First Newsletter, the Children First Web Page, and Children First Information Flyers.
Tuition Fees must be current in order to register.
Registration Forms will not be given out before the designated time of registration.
