SuperKids

Calvary Chapel’s special needs ministry, SuperKids, is designed specifically to help introduce your child to Christ in a loving environment and at an appropriate level for your child to learn and understand. Your child will be able to attend Sunday School, either in a mainstream classroom with an assistant, or in a stand alone special needs classroom. While your child is in Sunday School you will be able to attend the church service without worry or interruption because your child will be cared for by loving teachers who have been trained in the basics of caring for special needs children.

The classroom setting is open and very flexible. We have numerous items to stimulate and educate at the same time. We try to keep our teacher to student ratios very low so that each child can get all the personal attention they need. Each child has different needs and we do our best to address their individual needs.

Our teachers are all checked out carefully to assure they are both Christians and upright citizens. They are specially trained in the basics of how to handle special needs children. They are not experts but make up for it in love and prayer for your child. Their great desire is to teach your child about the love of Jesus and we believe that every child can learn about Jesus on some level.

We currently have several areas of outreach that we provide for the community:

1.Parent’s Day Out Program

2.Teacher Training Seminars

3.Community Organization Presentations

4.Church Special Needs Program Development.

One of our goals is to help other churches develop a special needs program in their church Sunday School. There are millions of people in our country who are affected by special needs and need churches who can provide help and welcome them with open arms.

In our program we will provide your church with a starter kit that has all of the materials and instructions needed to begin a special needs program in your church. We are available to come to your church and help set up, recruit volunteers and get you started in establishing your own special needs program.

We provide an annual teacher training conference for special needs teachers as well as regular teachers. The children coming into our classrooms have a variety of special needs including hyperactivity and attention problems. We also do a series of smaller seminars throughout the year. All of our training is available on tape, CD or DVD.
