Classes offered for 4 and 5 year olds are considered "religion readiness," introducing everything in their world, with awe and thanksgiving, as
gifts from God.
Grades K - 5th
Grades 1st - 5th Tuesdays 4:15pm and 6pm
Grades K - 5th Wednesdays 4:15pm and 6pm
The goal of the RE program is to nurture the faith of children through lessons, service prayer and worship. Catholic doctrinal teaching begins with
1st grade. Each year includes study of holy days, the liturgical seasons, prayers and practices held sacred to the Catholic tradition. Being a part
of a worshipping community, and service as a part of our baptismal call is emphasized throughout. Parental involvement is essential. Each
grade has an overall theme:
Grade 1: Baptism, God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the Trinity
Grade 2: The Mass, Reconciliation, and Eucharist
Grade 3: The Creed
Grade 4: The Commandments and Beatitudes
Grade 5: The Seven Sacraments
Vacation Bible School (VBS)
Monday-Friday 9am-12:15pm
VBS is offered toward the end of June each summer for Pre-Kindergaten through 5th grade. It is designed to be fun and fast moving! Scripturally
based, some basic truths are reinforced through songs, skits, prayer, food, games and lessons. Registration begins in April.
