Dear Parents,
Thank you for your continued support in passing our Catholic Faith to your children.  This year has been like no other.  Change is never easy but it can be a catalyst for better things.  Many families have expressed that they felt closer to their children as they engaged in the lessons, treasured their prayer time and felt more connected to their child’s Catechist despite the fact that it was remote.

We will continue to utilize the online program My Catholic Faith Delivered (MCFD) by Ignatius Press.  Students access the same course material online that is traditionally offered in books.   For the upcoming 2021-2022 school year we will offer a couple of different options for families.   We will resume our weekly classes for Grades 1 – 7 at Kennedy Catholic Prep (formerly Kennedy Catholic High School).   We will also offer a Home Program (Grades 3, 4, 5, 6 &7) with in person as well as monthly Zoom classes.   Please review the options/requirements carefully.

If you choose the weekly class option your child will meet in person and complete the weekly lessons in MCFD with guidance from their Catechist.  The students will be responsible to complete the 7 Unit Assessments on their own or with Parent assistance on the MCFD online system.   Students must achieve a minimum of 65% or better on the Unit assessments.
The Home Program is available to those students entering grades 3,4,5,6 & 7.  Those who choose the Home Program option will complete all lessons and Unit assessments online with a minimum grade of 65%.  They will attend two in person sessions and monthly Zoom classes. They will also be required to turn in weekly mass attendance slips.

Our grade 8 students will meet weekly at the Parish Center on Wednesday evenings.  The students will be responsible to complete the 7 Unit Assessments on their own or with Parent assistance on the MCFD online system.
You will have the opportunity to register via mail.   Registration forms will be emailed within the next day or two.   When registering please indicate a first/second choice for meeting days/times. Instructions for registering and schedule of class times are attached.
Blessings,
Pam
