The unique feature of a parochial school is the process of religious development and formation of its students. At St. Michael School this process and development is maintained through a complete graded course of study in religion, which is taught in grades K-8, covering the basic tenets, beliefs, traditions, and practices of the Roman Catholic faith. Sacramental preparation is incorporated into the curriculum at the appropriate grade levels.
Eucharist participation is of high priority.
All school liturgies are scheduled once a month. In addition, the children attend class masses regularly. Penance Services are scheduled at intervals during the school year. Parents are encouraged to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation with their children regularly so that their children will associate this experience with family worship rather than as a school experience. All students have the opportunity to experience traditional devotions and practices of the Catholic faith - the rosary, stations of the cross, Lenten sacrifices, mission education, vocation awareness, and prayer.
