PSRThe Parish School of Religion is the religious education program from Grades 1-8 which is offered to children in the parish that attend public school. The program’s purpose is to nourish young people in the knowledge of their faith, and help give them the tools to have a working knowledge of the faith and the beliefs of the Catholicism. It also serves as preparation for students that need to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist.
