K-2 OWL Parent/Child Orientation

Dear Parents,

I am excited to announce that RE is offering the K-2 OWL program this semester. Our Whole Lives: Sexuality Education for grades K-2 can help you educate your child about birth, babies, bodies, and families.  You will be actively involved as your child learns through songs, stories, activities and at-home projects that promote family dialogue. The Parent/Child Orientation will be held after church on March 10th, 12:00-2:30 pm.  A pizza lunch will be provided.

Our Whole Lives (OWL) values:

  • Respect
  • Relationship
  • Responsibility

In eight, one-hour workshops, OWL models and teaches caring, compassion, respect, and justice. It helps young children identify their attitudes, values, and feelings about themselves, their sexuality, and others’ sexuality.  Participants in Grades K-2 are guided by trained facilitators through an engaging curriculum that addresses age appropriate topics.  In addition to a parent meeting and a parent-child orientation, parents are welcome to attend any or all of the workshops with their children. Homelinks keep parent-child communication open.

Our OWL trained facilitators for this program are Annabelle Gallois-Bernos, Debbie Atkins, Erin Rogers and Rev. Pat Ray (mentor)
