The classroom program option is open to children in grades 1-6. Children come together by grade level in small groups and are led by a trained catechist. The parish curriculum is Faith First: Legacy Edition by RCL publications. This series supports children as they grow in their knowledge and understanding of the four pillars of our faith (Creed, Sacraments, Morality and Christian Prayer). These timeless truths from the Catechism of the Catholic Church are taught every year on every grade level. The program also includes hands-on-experiences of prayer, community and opportunities for service.

In addition to the classroom sessions, parents and children will come together with those from other faith formation programs for Community Nights.

PLEASE NOTE: The classroom program sessions will not meet during the weeks Community Nights are scheduled.

 Parents are urged to consider volunteering in the classroom program as a catechist, aide or other support role.
