St. Andrew Bobola CCD Program:
CCD is meant to be an aid to parents. Parents and the home are, of course, the primary source of religious formation. The class is not a substitute for parental involvement in the religious life of the student. Where Christ is truly present in the home, the CCD class will be adequate formal education.
  • Sunday: Grade 2 after the 9:15am Mass
  • Monday: Grades 5 and 6 at 3:00pm
  • Monday: Grades 1,3 and 4 at 3:15pm
  • Monday: Grades 7,8,9,10 and 11 at 6:30pm

MASS ATTENDANCE: "Remember to Keep Holy the Lord's Day"
Mass attendance is an integral part of your child's faith formation. Mass attendance goes hand in hand with the CCD Program. One cannot do the work of the other. Please bring your child to Mass on Sunday!

CLASS ATTENDANCE:
Your child should attend each and every class. Unfortunately, even with perfect attendance, they will receive less than 35 hours of religious instruction! We sympathize in advance regarding the choices that must be made. However, sporting activities and dance classes in no way outrank religious education as priority items. Please don't confuse your child by placing these activities before the message of Jesus!

If you know in advance of an absence, I ask that you please contact your child's teacher to obtain the missed work. Students are expected to bring a note from home when they are absent.

I ask that you please get your child to CCD class on time. A late child disrupts the class and leaves the child at a disadvantage in the class.

EMERGENCY CLOSINGS:
Decision to cancel CCD classes will be made as soon as possible due to weather. If the public school is closed, we are closed automatically.

BEHAVIOR:
Your child is expected to behave in a manner as is appropriate in an educational setting.

1. Respecting teachers, adults and fellow students.
2. Respecting school property. DO NOT touch the contents of the desk you sit it!
3. Proper attire should be worn. No baseball caps, no FlipFlops, and no revealing clothing of any kind will be allowed. No bulky chains around neck, waist or hips (injuries may arise).
4. Be prepared for class. Remember to bring your book and paper and pencil or pen. Please complete all assignments.

A child who continually fails to follow these guidelines will:
1. Receive a warning from their teacher
2. Be sent to office to discuss inappropriate behavior
3. Will be asked to return the following week with their parent for conference with CRE and teacher.
4. If necessary, the child may be asked to leave the program.
