PRE-K THROUGH 8TH GRADE
-
Lessons flow from the Sunday Gospel, so children are introduced to the Catholic faith within the rhythms of the liturgical year.
Pre-K is open to those children who will have turned 4 years old by September 1.
Kindergarten is open to those children who will have turned 5 years old by September 1 and are enrolled in Kindergarten in a public, private, or homeschool.
They will meet In-Person weekly
-
Students will engage in Alive in Christ that features a unique spiral scope & sequence based on seven essential doctrinal themes. Age-appropriate content for each theme is presented at every grade level as the child grows and develop.
1st to 6th Grade will meet In-Person weekly.
-
Grade 7 - Engage in a variety of hands-on, interdisciplinary activities to enhance the concepts being learned in their Our Sunday Visitor: Alive In Christ weekly lessons. They will meet In-Person weekly. Additionally, they attend scheduled parish Sacramental Confirmation Preparation workshops and/or retreats.
Grade 8 - progress to a more "discussion-style" catechetical experience as they embark upon an overview of the Catholic faith. Discussions are sparked by the video content from "Chosen" from Ascension Press. They engage in weekly discussions about how the faith applies to their lives as teens who are preparing for Confirmation and will soon be fully initiated members of the Catholic Church, called to live as disciples of Jesus Christ. Additionally, they attend scheduled parish Sacramental Confirmation Preparation workshops and/or retreats.
