Home Schooling

We are very Home School friendly. In fact, we encourage it.

You do not need to use our Sacramental Prep classes or High School Religious Ed. They are there to help you as you see fit. The children and teens do seem to enjoy them though.

SACRAMENTAL PREP – If you homeschool, you still need to register your child so that we can make plans to include them.
