The Religion Curriculum follows the suggested outline handed down to us by the Department of Catholic Schools in the Santa Rosa Diocese. The general nature of the curriculum is listed below.

Kindergarten: In Kindergarten we begin with the study of God's love; how he is the loving creator of all things and we are all members of God's family. A beautiful foundation that will grow as the student progresses in his/her religious life.

1st Grade: We focus on the many gifts that God has given to us.  We discuss Jesus' childhood and the ways that Jesus has taught us to care for all of creation.  We learn about being positive members of the Catholic Church.  

2nd Grade: In Second Grade our most important focus is on the Sacraments of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. We are reminded that when we gather together we present ourselves to God and we are united through Holy Eucharist.

3rd Grade:In  3rd grade we focus on the different Church Communities. We are a Believing, Praying, Caring, and Ministering Community. In the Spring we begin Family Life. We learn that we are unique and loving people, who are always changing.
