Each elementary grade level has its own focus: Second graders learn the Mass and prepare for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist. Third graders learn what it means to be a Catholic Christian and who and what makes up the Catholic Church. Fourth graders are taught the meaning of conscience and the Ten Commandments, the corporal and spiritual works of mercy and the Beatitudes. Fifth graders grow in understanding of the Supreme Sacrament of Jesus revealing God to us and that the Church is the Sacrament of Jesus. They also study the seven sacraments of the Church, the liturgical year and the Creed.


Praying is an important part of our Catholic faith. Below, you will find links to prayers by grade. The prayers progress with each grade. Please use this resource to help enrich your family's prayer life.

Wednesday from 7-8PM in the school

CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF CHILDREN (CIC) is a sacramental preparation program for older children (grade 4 and up) who have not been baptized, made their first reconciliation, or received their first Holy Communion. The program involves home study with a parent or guardian as well as attendance once a month October through April at CIC class.  Our Catholic Faith from Sadlier Publishing is the curriculum used to teach the children a good basic understanding of their faith and their role as Catholic Christians. Students also must regularly attend Wednesday night religious education classes (or attend Christ the King School) simultaneously with the CIC Program. For more details on the program and current dates, click here for a pamphlet. Contact Jessie Wagnon at 946-1675 or email her at cic@ckparish.org if you have more questions.
