Dear Parents and Guardians,

Thank you for the opportunity of assisting in your responsibility to educate your children in the Catholic Faith. While the family should make a commitment to attend class, PREP is never a substitute for Mass attendance each week. Children who attend Mass with their family observe the Christian commitment to practice the faith as a community.

1.       To enroll in the First Communion class, all 1st grade work must be completed.

2.     To enroll in the Confirmation class, all 7th grade work must be completed.

3.     Kindergarten student are invited to join the Children’s Liturgy of the Word on Sundays during 8:30am and 10:00am Masses. There will not be any Kindergarten PREP classes.

4.     There will be two Summer PREP programs for grades 3-7.

     Starting June 21- July 3rd.

  • The Morning program will be 9-11:50AM

  • The second program is in the Afternoon 1-3:50PM

  • You are welcome to sign up for either session to fulfill your yearly PREP requirements. Register early, these classes fill very quickly.

5.     Home study is available, but is not the preferred option for Grades: 3, 4, 5 and 6. Parents and children use a textbook following a curriculum schedule. Children complete Unit Tests at home and submit them to the PREP office four times a year. There is no Home study for grades 1 and 7.

6.    New students: We require an original Catholic Baptismal Certificate with the parish seal; we will make a copy and return it to you. Please obtain a transfer record if you have attended a Religious Education program elsewhere.

7.    Fees:

·        $100 per child grades 1,3,4,5,6,7

·        $150 for 2nd grade, to cover textbooks and materials.

·        $200 for 8th grade, to cover textbooks and materials.

·        Fees for the second child or more are reduced by 50%.

·        $50 for Home Study.

·        If fees present a hardship, please contact the PREP office.
