Parish Religion Program (PRP)

Parish Religion Program (PRP) provides faith formation for children in grades 1–8 who attend public schools.

Sunday Winter in class PRP - Sunday PRP is an opportunity to meet with friends, discuss faith topics guided by trained catechists, and walk through the liturgical year together (September - April) building the students' relationship to Jesus. Through prayer, games, songs, crafts, and textbook activities, students will explore the beauty of God and the goodness contained in the Truths of the Catholic faith.

We meet each Sunday morning for one and twenty minutes.
September 13, 2020 to April 25, 2021 (Sundays)
Grades 1–8 attend from 9 AM to 10:20 AM in the school.

Tuition and Fees

One Child	$140
Two Children	$195
Three or more children	$230

Sunday Winter PRP Homeschooling- If your family is unable to attend on Sunday mornings, we are offering a simple, supported homeschooling option that begins September 13th and can be completed anytime, at your convenience, before April 25th.

If you are considering this homeschooling option, we will send you instructions on picking up the textbook materials and explain how to do online testing through our Sadlier Textbook company.

The fee for the homeschooling program is $30 per child and entails the following:

1. You (or a delegate) will need to pick up the textbook and materials from the Welcome Center and watch a Zoom orientation video to get started.

2. You and your child will have support videos (or handouts) and work together as you teach the lessons. Your child will demonstrate learning through 4 Unit Tests completed online.

3. There are beautiful Theology of the Body stories for you and your child to watch online, which I think you will really appreciate.

4. The final Mastery Level Skills Checklist will need to be filled out and returned.

5. Any feedback regarding this new homeschooling process would be greatly appreciated.

We hope this is a simple, easy to follow home-schooling model, which may be completed anytime before April 25, 2021, (extensions offered if needed). Our hope is that in discussing together the beautiful truths God has revealed, this home-schooling option will strengthen your family and help you and your child(ren) grow in your love for God and each other.
