If you have a child or children in grades Pre4 through 8 we invite you to register them in our Religious Education program. Each and every child in our parish has a right to have their spirit nourished and nurtured. We have created a place where all our children feel welcomed and at home here at St. Josaphat. Catechists guide the children through a spiraling curriculum. A spiraling curriculum is one "in which students repeat the study of a subject at different grade levels, each time at a higher level of difficulty and in greater depth," source: www.education.com.

Our approach in the learning environment is also based on Howard Gardner's work on Multiple Intelligence Theory www.dmps.k12.ia.us/schools/2Goodrell/Multiple_Intelligences_diagram3.jpg, which allows each student to master the catechetical content and skills in the way best suited to them as an active learner. Prayer is woven throughout the catechetical process.
