Saint Francis of Assisi

The time is here to register your child(ren) for the 2009-2010 Religious Education School year.  Our purpose is to work together with families to educate our children in the faith.  To enroll your child in the Religious Education program you must be a registered member of Saint Francis of Assisi Parish.  At Saint Francis we strive to provied the best learning opportunities for the youth of the parish therefore; we will have a maximum of 12 students in the grades K-5 programs, a maximum of 15 in our 6-8 traditional classes.  Should you wish to assure your child's place on a particular day, we urge you to register early.  Classes will be filled on a first come first served basis.  Once classes are filled, your child will be assigned your second class choice, or whatever space is available.  Classes are not interchangeable.  If you are assigned to Sunday, you may only bring your child to that assignment.  Sutdents will meet on the following days and times, provided there are enough teachers and aides.  If you would like to volunteer please contact the Religious Education Office (424-3456).  If there are not enough teacher/aide volunteers, we will supply the needed materials so that you can homeschool your child.  Please note:  Homeschooling is not an option for sacramental years (grades 2,9,10).

Here at Saint Francis we offer several different programs to meet the needs of individual familes.  Please check the information provided to discern your options.  If you have any questions please contact the Religious Education Office.
