The Church School offers religious education to all parish students, age 3 ½ - 18. The educational program includes the Divine Liturgy, 9:30 A.M. All children are expected to participate in the Liturgy, together with their parents. Immediately after thereception of Holy Communion, all students quietly leave the church together with their teachers and proceed to their classroom.
Our teachers are recruited from the ranks of our devoted parents, who are then trained by the parish priest as well as in special Seminars and Workshops for this purpose. Classes are taught in English. Bi-lingual teachers are available to assist those whodo not understand the English language. All parents are invited to bring their children on time and to spread the word about ourprogram.
Our students present two cultural/spiritual programs a year, before Christmas and Mother’s Day. Besides this, we organize field trips, pilgrimages and other fun filled activities intended tofoster sound Orthodox Christian fellowship and life-lasting friendships.
Since we share the belief that religious education begins in the family, all parents should be members of the Parents Club. We provide financial and volunteer support to our Church School,and assist Father in any need concerning our children's religious education. We also enjoy our fellowship and invite you to be a part of our club.
