Dear Parents,

Can you believe the weather cancellations we've had so far this winter?! I feel sad and guilty every time we cancel! I actually had a dream about RE last night, and woke up so anxious about not getting to pray and learn with our students these past few weeks! Your children, (especially your children's souls) are so very important to us. Just please be certain of our constant prayers for your them, and for your entire family!

We don't have "make-up" dates in Religious Ed, but we will be even more focused than usual on using every minute as efficiently as possible to make up for the time we have missed.

And as a reminder, RE follows the weather cancellation policy of the Blue Valley School District. When Blue Valley cancels, we automatically cancel as well.

Close in prayer,
Shawna, Jane, Bernadette, & Rosa

This year’s program, entitled Tracking Mary: Mysteries & Messages, features the Queen of Heaven Express – a special holy train traveling to the faraway places around the globe visited by Our Blessed Mother: Lourdes, Fatima, Guadalupe, England and Ireland.

Children discover how Mary brings us closer to Jesus through the power of the Rosary. Mysteries and Messages are revealed at each stop. The program focuses on Catholic identity and teaches the Bible from the Catholic perspective.

It introduces Saints as faith heroes and heroines while encouraging family prayer through a daily Rosary. Children will enjoy skits, activities and games. Sensational, easy-to-make crafts reflect each day's theme. Songs from the Soul Tracks Music CD are lively and the lyrics enrich the overall program.


Adult & Youth Volunteer Registration Opens March 1

1st-6th Grade Class Outlines/Class Calendar







Parents, please use these Class Outlines
to keep up with your child's Faith Formation at RE.
Your children will learn these truths at Religious Ed,
but must have it reinforced with you and the rest of your family at HOME
to instill a lasting Catholic Identity in your child.
God Bless You!

Pick Up Procedure

Students who arrive late or need to leave early must
check-in at the RE Office first.

At the end of class, Catechists are not allowed to release children in grades K, 1, 2, and 3 until an adult or designated caretaker comes to pick them up.

Students in grades 4, 5, & 6 will be released unless you advise us otherwise. 4th 5th & 6th grade students may also meet a younger sibling at their classroom to accompany them to the cafeteria or go directly to their ride in the North parking lot.

If you give permission for an older sibling, car pool driver, nanny, or other family member to pick up your K-3rd grade child, you must communicate this to your child's catechist. Thank you!

All K-6 Parents-
Our Catechists really appreciate getting to know their student's parents,
so please come in and touch base with him/her whenever possible.
Thank You!
