Jesus Christ always remains the center of everything we do at St. Katherine of Siena School. Through daily spirituality and the celebration of the sacraments, our students develop their Catholic beliefs and grow into faithful young adults.

Daily Spirituality

Spirituality is integrated into every day life at St. Katherine of Siena School; our students are taught to be living examples of gospel values. Through daily prayer and service to our neighbor, students strive to be like Jesus and to live a Christian lifestyle both in school and out. Not only is Catholicism taught in religion class, but through the daily example set by our faculty and staff and the integration of Christian values into every lesson taught at our school. Every first Friday of the month, we celebrate Mass together as a school. On subsequent Fridays, each grade celebrates Mass together. We open and close our days with prayer, and it is through praying together that we continue to build our faith community and ensure that Christ remains at the center of what we do.

Sacraments

Our third and seventh grade students at St. Katherine of Siena celebrate sacraments; in third, students receive the sacraments of First Penance and First Holy Eucharist, and in seventh, students receive the sacrament of Confirmation. These are major steps in our students' development as active Catholics, and throughout the school year, they are taught the importance of the sacraments they will receive and why they are significant in their lives. With the guidance of our third and seventh grade teachers, our Director of Religious Education, Deacon Duffy, and our parents, our celebrations of these sacraments are joyous year after year.
