Dharma School

Dharma School at Buddhist Church of Florin isn’t just a Sunday School class — it is a place where youth from preschool to high school can learn and grow, guided by mentors and educated in the ways of the Dharma.

We seek to foster a community and support system for kids to have as they come into their own, and to provide a nurturing environment for them to develop their senses of compassion and empathy. We welcome every child to join us.

• Buddhist practice, etiquette, and history
• Development of good character and ethical values
• Family relationships and the value of lifelong learning
