The Faith Formation team has made the decision to run the majority of our religious education programming (grades 1-8) remotely; at least until social distancing guidelines are revoked. Unfortunately, due to the hands-on nature of our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd classes, we will not be offering this program at this time. Additionally, we will not start the religious education school year until October. We hope that this additional time will allow our families to adjust to the changes that are being implemented by the school districts. Click header for more.
