Families choose our home study option for different reasons. For some it’s a supplement to their homeschooling program and for others it simply fits their schedule better than our in-person programming. No matter what your reason, we are happy you are here and modeling the faith for your child.
This year, we will be using the “Faith & Life” program from My Catholic Faith Delivered. This program incorporates various elements which are designed to reach different types of learners and help them to understand what it means to be Catholic. Every chapter ends with a family catechesis guide to equip parents and encourage faith formation in the home.
The materials for this course are all online. Parents will be given a suggested schedule for completing lessons and when assessments are due. If you have done home study with us in the past, you will be pleased to know that this new program streamlines the assessment process. We will be able to see your child’s scores without you needing to send them via email.
