Religious Education. “Catholic education is an expression of the mission extended by Xxxxx to the Church He founded. Through education, the church seeks to prepare its members to proclaim the Good News and to translate this proclamation into action.” (To Teach as Xxxxx Did - National Conference of Catholic Bishops; 1972) The Catholic school works in conjunction with parents in the religious education of their children. Parents are the primary religious educators of their children. The values and attitudes of parents are communicated to their children by the way in which parents live their daily lives. Parents who love Xxxxxx and His Church, who reverently participate in the Eucharist, who live lives based on justice and love, who are actively involved in their parish community, who see their lives as lives of service, and for whom prayer is a natural response in life, communicate these values to their children. Parents cannot impose their faith on their children, but they can help their children realize and appreciate the meaning of faith in life. Report Cards / Progress Reports Report Cards are important tools for communication. Report cards will be given three (3) times during the academic school year or every twelve weeks. Progress Reports will be given to all students at the mid-point of each trimester. Subsequent Progress Reports will be sent home if a significant change in a particular student’s grades has occurred. These reports are meant to update parents in any areas of concern. Online Grade Book– 4th/ 5th Grade parents are able to check on their child’s grades at any point in the year through our on-line grading system. All families should have a FACTS Parent Portal login and password. It is encouraged that parents and students view their grades weekly to monitor progress.

Religious Education. For all students who are members of a legally recognized church or religious community, religious education in their faith is a compulsory subject. All students who are members of a legally recognized church or religious community are therefore generally obliged to participate in denominational religious classes of their faith, unless participation would only be possible under unacceptable conditions. Students with no religious affiliation, as well as students who are members of an officially registered religious denomination, are entitled to participate in religious classes offered by a legally recognized church or religious community, as far as the concerned legally recognized church or religious community allows this. Guardians take note: if students with no religious affiliation or those who are members of an officially registered religious denomination cannot participate in any religious education, no special care or supervision can be offered by the school while the other students are participating in religious classes, although students may stay inside the school building.
