Regular weekly attendance at all class sessions is expected and should be norm for all our faith formation students. All makeup work is required for all missed classes. It is up to the parents and students to ask their catechist what they missed and turn it in the next class to get the absence excused.
All makeup work must be completed before they can register for the next upcoming Religious Education year. If a student has missed a year or so of formal Faith Formation, makeup work is available. See the Coordinator of Faith Formation, [email protected], to discuss possibilities.
Policy for Drop-off and Pick-up
Parents who are dropping off students in grades prekindergarten through four must accompany their children into the building. If your child's catechist/teacher is not there, you must remain with your child until the catechist arrives. In addition, the parents will sign the students out of class when they come back to pick up their children. Parents are not to drop off their children in the parking lot or leave their children unattended in the building.
Behavior Guidelines for Students
We encourage all Faith Formation students to be attentive, respectful and considerate of themselves and others in the classroom.
Misbehavior in the classroom and in the program will not be tolerated. Misbehavior includes such actions as stealing and destroying property, fighting, being disrespectful or uncooperative, and using inappropriate language or gestures, leaving the classroom or the parish building without permission during class time. Parents will be immediately notified by telephone of the behavior, and they will be asked to come to the Parish Office to pick up their child. If this behavior is repeated, the student will no longer be welcome in class and transferred to the Home Program option (if applicable). Cell phones must be off and out of sight.
