St. Patrick’s Religious Education (CCD) program is for 1st – 8th graders who attend public (or private school) and need to receive Religious instruction.
In order for children to receive First Holy Communion with their peers at the end of 2nd grade, they must be baptized and have completed two years of Religious Education (RE); that’s why registering children for 1st grade RE is so critical.
St. Patrick’s RE program is still enrolling 1st – 8th graders for the upcoming school year. All grades will be In-Person on Tuesdays from 4:15 – 5: 45 pm. Deadline to register is Aug.31, though we highly recommend you do so before then.

Sending children to RE every year helps them encounter Jesus, face our complicated world with Catholic values, and prepares them to receive their sacraments.
