Summer Program Information
The summer program is a condensed two-week program where students learn multiple lessons per day and complete the lessons for the upcoming year over the summer. The summer program is only available for grades 3, 4, 5 & 6. This program is different from St. Catherine’s Vacation Bible School, which is at the end of July and includes more faith activities, crafts, and music.
This year, the program will run from Monday, June 30th, to Friday, July 11th. Students will have off on Friday, July 4th and on the weekend days of July 5th and 6th. The program runs from 7:30am - 12:30pm each day. Because so much work is fit into a short period of time, absences are not permitted in the summer program except for serious reasons. The curriculum used is Word of Life by the Augustine Institute and Ignatius Press.
The registration form is available below.
Fall Program Information
The fall program is available for all grades, 1 through 8. The program runs from September through April. This year, all classes will meet on Tuesdays. Grades 1 through 4 will meet on Tuesdays from 3:45pm-5:15pm and grades 5 through 8 will meet on Tuesdays from 5:30pm-7:00pm. For grades 2 and 8, there will be parent meetings at the beginning of the year to go over information on the sacraments, dates, and paperwork. Grades 1, 2, 7, & 8 are required to attend the fall program, as these grades are not available over the summer.
