Available Resources
Library
The Central Christian Academy Library is open to CHFM members on Wednesday afternoons from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. The homeschool librarian will be available Wednesday afternoons to acquaint homeschool students with library procedure and to assist in selecting and checking out books. Students 5th grade and under must be accompanied by an adult in the library. While there is no charge for overdue books or tapes, families who fail to return resources will lose all check-out privileges until materials are returned or replaced.
Church Resource Room
The church Resource Room will be available on Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. for our use. If you are preparing, teaching, or helping with a homeschool class at CHFM you may use the resources from this room such as scissors, tape, glue, markers, pencils, etc. A record sheet will be made available for you to record items that you are using from this room. You will need to indicate when the items are returned.
CHFM Copier Use Guidelines
A CHFM Resource Room assistant will do your copying for you.
Please copy only what you need for 1-2 weeks at a time.
You may use only white copy paper. All others (colored paper) will need to be provided by the user.
You may make no more than 10 copies of one original. For exceptions please see the resource room assistant.
We will not copy any publication that has a copyright.
Laminating
Please drop off your laminating project in the church Resource Room on Wednesdays prior to 1:00 p.m. Laminating will be done by a designated trained operator. Other available equipment includes a book binder, oversized paper cutter, and letter punch which can be operated by individuals after instruction. Lamination costs 35 cents per foot and must be paid to the operator before you can receive your laminated project.
If you need a comb binder these will be available from CHFM for a minimal cost of 10 to 20 cents each.
If you have never used the church Resource Room, you will need to receive orientation from the Resource Room Coordinator before using this room. If you take your children in the resource room, you are responsible to oversee their actions.
Nursery
CHFM members may use the church nursery for children (ages birth to three years) on Mondays or Wednesdays during class times. All nursery rules set up by church staff must be followed. Each family who utilizes the nursery will need to pay $20 per child, per session. All nursery fees will be collected at registration.
Please follow these guidelines for using the nursery:
You must remain in the building if you have children in the nursery.
You may not check other CHFM member’s children into the nursery.
You may not bring children to the nursery that you are baby-sitting.
Children must be checked in and picked up by a parent, not siblings.
Newsletter
Each week we publish a newsletter to keep you informed of any class changes, schedules, upcoming field trips and other pertinent information. Please pick up your copy from your personal file folder which will be located in D Hall on Mondays from 8:30-11:30 a.m. and on Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. High School students will also be responsible for picking up newsletters in this manner. All other pertinent correspondence or papers from instructors will be placed in each family’s personal file folder for pick up. Information that needs to be in the newsletter should be emailed only by 5:00 p.m. Monday to chfm@ccc.org. Newsletters and other information will be emailed to members who do not regularly attend classes on Monday or Wednesdays. Please notify Resource Room Coordinator if you need your newsletters mailed. Please have your highschooler read these newsletters as they will be held responsible for the information.
