Welcome to our 2020 -2021 Religious Education Year at St. John.
This year will be a challenging year for our teachers and our students. But with God's help, we aree sure that we meet the challenge and find new paths to learning more about our faith and about God.
We now have a beautiful new recording studio in the Connelly Hall, (christened George Torok Studio) to record the lessons for the students. Now you can make time for yourself during the week to watch the video and complete the required online assignments. However, just because the teachers are not meeting with the students face to face, please know that the students can call the teacher or email the teacher if they have questions.
Grades 1, 7, 8 - students are NOT using Christ In Us System - teachers will be emailing the parents/students the lessons/assignments
Grades 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 will be using Christ in Us and they should have received the userids and passwords to get into the system. Teachers will be using the "MSG" system in the Christ in Us to contact the students and parents.
Please note that all students are required to keep up with their assignments weekly and to attend Mass on a weekly basis. Masses are webcasted in English (10.30 am daily) and Spanish (1 pm Sunday), so parents if you don't attend in person, please tune into the webcast Mass. Family Masses are scheduled once a month and we ask that you attend the Family Mass in person.
Family Mass Schedule: Oct 25 10:30AM, 11/22 10:30AM, 12/24 -4PM, 1/10 10:30AM, 2/21 10:30AM, 3/14 10:30AM, 4/4 10:30AM, 5/15 10:30 AM
ALL GRADES 2 AND 8 SHOULD BE ATTENDING MASS IN PERSON EVERY WEEK IN PREPARATION FOR THE SACRAMENTS.
