• Class will dismiss at 11:15am.
• Regular attendance is expected. However, note that students who miss a class can download handouts from the class web site.
• Confirmation candidates who are acolytes assigned to the 11:15 service, should bring your robes to class. (You'll be dismissed at 11:05.) Scouts and athletes playing club sports should inform their "den/pack/group leaders" and coaches that they have a regular commitment until 11:15am on Sundays.
