How should the homes be divided?
Imagine Ministries suggests that all homes be single-gender and divided based on the maturity level of the students while keeping their age or grade in mind. We understand that some 7th graders may actually be more mature than some of your 11th graders, but mixing 7th and 11th graders likely will not work. When deciding when to base the division of a student or group of students based on maturity level, consider only including these more mature students in age/grade groups that are one or two years in difference. We encourage churches to never “demote” a student based on maturity level unless that student has a strong relationship with some in that age/grade level. Churches often divide homes similar to this… 7th Guys———————-7th Girls 7th/8th Guys——————–7th/8th Girls or 8th Guys———————-8th Girls 9th/10th Guys——————-9th/10th Girls Etc.
