Students in Grades 3-6, in their first year of preparation for the sacraments of Reconciliation and First Eucharist. This may also include students not baptized in the Roman Catholic Church. Children are not required to have their parents present for this class.

First-year Sacramental Parents are required to attend our “Catholic Refresher” classes being offered throughout the year. Only one parent is required, but both are encouraged to attend. These classes are there to help adults better understand their faith and the role of the Domestic Church. We want to empower parents to feel comfortable having faith-based conversations with their children and implementing Catholic Living in their homes.

Students in Grades 2-6, baptized in the Roman Catholic Church have completed their first year of an approved sacramental preparation program and are preparing for the sacraments of the First Eucharist and Reconciliation.
