Kids Connect Check-In Procedures
Check-In
-Families, please line up in the Hollis Commons on the 2nd Floor near the elevators
-Please have one adult per family if possible
-Each child and parent will have a temperature check by a touch-less thermometer
-Check-in will be done by a Kids Connect Dream Team member
After families have gone through the check-in line they may proceed to the 4th floor by way of the stairs. The elevator will be reserved for families who cannot take the stairs.
As soon as parents have dropped their child/children off on the 4th floor, we are asking all parents to follow the red arrows marked on the floor and take the East stairwell to make their way back down to the 2nd floor. The elevator will be available for adults who cannot take the stairs.
Kids Connect Dream Team members will not be required to wear a face mask but are welcome to.
Children will not be required to wear a face mask but are welcome to.
All students will sanitize hands before entering the classrooms
Pick Up
-All children in Kindergarten thru 5th grade will be brought down to the second floor by way of the stairs next to the elevator. They will sit in family groups in the Check-In Area and wait to be picked up. Please have your tags ready.
-All Nursery thru Preschool children will stay on the 4th floor and parents are asked to use the same route as check in to pick them up.
This helps to keep numbers and congestion down on the 4th floor.

Kid’s Connect!
Our heart at Kids Connect is to see our children transformed by pursuing and knowing their Creator. Encouraging families to build community with other families, with Christ at the center of it all! We lead a ministry that is safety conscious, biblically based, culturally relevant and relational. We do this by partnering with parents and team members to create a fun and safe environment for children to learn about God.
We use the Orange curriculum and when your child graduates from our ministry, they will know these three truths: I Need To Make A Wise Choice, I Can Trust God No Matter What, and I Should Treat Others The Way I Want To Be Treated.
