This course will increase the student's knowledge of the Church. Beginning with the apostolic age and the age of persecution, students will be introduced to the accomplishments of men and women of faith through the centuries. We will also be using a new book on morality. This will enable young people to navigate through challenging times with a clear positive moral attitude that is essential for Catholics in the new millennium. We will also be incorporating service learning, individual volunteer projects and technology into Religion this year.
Students pray at the opening of the day and the closing of the day.
Family groups serve as a special bonding element in our community building at the school. Once a week students will be involved in Bible study. Students will be required to memorize one Bible verse per week. This will result in a portion of their grade. Creative projects will be used throughout the year including a 2-3 minute oral interpretation project.
