We are a Cooperative

Ours is a cooperative, volunteer taught religious education program, led by a volunteer Religious Education Committee and a part-time paid Director of Religious Education. All members of the congregation are expected to participate in the religious growth and learning of the congregation's children. Volunteers are needed to teach classes, help with special events, address our children during our weekly worship service and serve on our Religious Education Committee. Please contact any Religious Education Committee member or our Director of Religious Education to volunteer. Volunteer leaders of our religious education classes include Channing members and friends of all backgrounds. This creates a rich, diverse and intergenerational program. Teachers gather as teams and plan for our children cooperatively with the assistance of the Director or Religious Education.

The instruction of our classes is informal and activity oriented, providing an environment for students to learn and question while having fun. Curricula are used to provide developmentally appropriate education to our children, and our volunteer teachers are encouraged to use their own experiences and creativity. It is our aim to develop well educated young Unitarian Universalists who can proudly articulate what they believe.
