First through Eighth Grade: Forming Faithful Families
The pandemic allowed us to plan a totally new model of faith formation in 2020-2021 and an alternate model in 2021-2022. In planning for 2022-2023, we have taken your survey comments into consdieration and will use what worked best during these two school years of Covid (playlists and connecting with families) and merge it with a modified classroom model.

Specifically, we will provide 12 dates for "Mass & Class" for children in grades 1 through 8 on Sunday mornings. All are strongly encouraged to attend 10 a.m. Mass. Grades one – six will have class immediately following Mass at Assumption School until 12 noon. Grades 7 & 8 will have class immediately following Mass in the Parish Center until 12:15. There will be three additional dates built into the calendar for Family Faith Formation sessions for all grades. Sacramental Prep for 2nd graders will have three additional parent/child sessions built into the calendar.

We are asking each family to please pay a tuition fee of $200 for your first child, $35 for each additional child with a $270 maximum. There will be an additional $75 fee for each 2nd grader to cover the cost of their Sacramental prep workbook, chalice, and banner.

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori approach to faith formation and is part of the National Association of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd in the United States. We are planning to welcome the children safely and joyfully in September 2022! We will be monitoring the current public health situation and be prepared to enact any safety measures necessary to protect the well-being and health of the Good Shepherd children, volunteer staff and families. If necessary, we will adjust our comprehensive Good Shepherd Reopening and Safety Plan which included modifications to the atria and the rooms used by the children inside the Ministry Center as well as the outdoor spaces used by the Good Shepherd children. Social distancing, smaller sessions, medical grade air purifiers, mandatory mask policy for all Good Shepherd children and staff, staggered arrival and departure times, student flow, special presentations for all the children related to life in the time of COVID-19 at home, in the atrium and at Mass as well as handwashing, hand sanitizing, cleaning and disinfecting were just a few elements of our plan for the last two years.  To learn more please see the CGSUSA website or the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Section of our parish website.  Register here for new 3, 4, 5 year old and Kindergarten participants as well as children returning to CGS through sixth grade. Sessions are held September-May on Sunday mornings and evenings, Tuesday afternoons, Thursday afternoons and Friday afternoons.
