The teachers at First Parish are volunteers from our church community. At First Parish in Sherborn, we ask all parents to teach one trimester each year. We support our teachers by providing teacher training, a written curriculum, professional support, and materials throughout the year. Teaching can be a personally enriching form of social action and ministry for volunteers and create special connections within the church community.

Teachers can download the 2007-2008 Teacher Assignments.

Religious Education classes are grouped by age, from the nursery level through 8th grade. Classes may incorporate storytelling, discussions, sharing, arts-and-crafts projects, games, music, and other activities. We also encourage participation in service and social action activities to help our children realize the positive impact that they can have on the lives of others. Importantly, we try to make the Religious Education experience fun so that children will want to keep coming back.
