I just want to take a minute to introduce myself.  I know you have heard from Kim as she has processed your registration and probably have exchanged a few emails. (:

I am the Co-Director of CHAT with Kim.  I oversee the daily 'stuff' at CHAT.  Please feel free to reach out if you ever have any questions or concerns.  If you need something on a CHAT day, please text me as I'll see that sooner than an email.  My number is #952-484-6273.

The webpage with all our emails from the first  semester is here EMAIL TRAIL. Please take a look at the parking lot instructions whether you plan to drop off or plan to stay on campus.  There's a lot of other information there if you have the time to poke around the emails.  

All CHAT students and parents enter at Door 2.  (Door 1 is for the church personnel only.)

There is a parent volunteer who sits inside Door 2 and checks IDs.  Your student's ID should be there on the table either next week or the following week. If you haven't sent in a headshot, please do asap to kim@mcg.net.  If ever your student forgets theirs, we have a binder with pictures.  Students just need to point out their picture.  It's much quicker if a student brings their ID, but either works. (:  

Parents who come into the building must show a digital ID found here HERE.  If you plan to stay on campus, you will need a yellow sticker that will let us know you are a CHAT family.  This information is on the Email Trail with the 8/18 date which also explains  how to move this ID to your homepage on your phone.

About every other Wednesday we get free bread from Breadsmith.  We set it on tables inside Door 2.  Help yourself.  If you have some change to throw in the zipper pouch to help pay for the bags, that is helpful.

We also have a bin of free books that families bring in to bless other families.  Feel free to donate or shop.  This too is inside Door 2.  

Our Lost and Found Bin is right inside Door 2.  Check here first if you are missing anything.  It is helpful if you label water bottles and lunch boxes. 

There are some snacks for sale at the Monitor table. All items are $.75.

Again, I am here if you need anything.  We are happy to have you join our CHAT family this semester.

Blessings,

Laura Johnson
