Family Life Program
Family Life K-8 Religion Program Begins February 13
Part of the Shepherd of the Hills K-8 Religion curriculum is a 10-lesson unit, Family Life, scheduled to begin on Tuesday, February 13. Family Life is a program of moral catechesis that includes chastity education and provides children with a wholesome understanding of human sexuality based upon Catholic Church moral principles. With this program, children and their parents are encouraged to develop better communication skills and healthy family relationships.
Today, all K-8 parents will be receiving a Parent Connection magazine that outlines the topics covered in Family Life and provides support for follow-up conversations with your child. Please review the information.
If you have questions about Family Life, you should contact your child’s religion teacher: Mrs. Lori Freund (K), Mrs. Robbi Hughes (grade 1), Miss Nici Colwin (grade 2), Mrs. Amelia Petersen (grade 3), Mrs. Taylor Mueller (grade 4) and Mrs. Karen Schreiner (grades 5-8), for more information and support.
