Student & Family Guidelines
Student & Family Guidelines
Students are expected to attend classes regularly and on time every Sunday from September through May. If a student will be absent, we ask that families notify the class teacher(s) in advance whenever possible, so we can support continuity in the classroom.
All students should participate actively and respectfully in class, assembly, and group activities.
Students and parents/guardians are expected to attend the weekly assembly, not just Dharma or Language classes. Assembly is an important part of building community spirit and supporting shared spiritual growth.
We encourage both students and parents/guardians to bring an open mind and positive attitude, and to show kindness, respect, and cooperation with peers, teachers, and fellow families.
Parents and family members are invited to get involved - through volunteering, participating in SFHT programs, and supporting their child’s overall educational journey.
More detailed support materials will be shared before the school year begins. We’re excited to be part of each child’s learning and growth!
