Each year, Catholic Schools and Parish Religious Education Programs in the Diocese of Allentown teach the Child Protection Catechesis Curriculum mandated by the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People passed by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops in 2002. The material in this curriculum has been prepared in light of our faith and in accordance with the moral teachings of the Catholic Church.

The purpose of this program is to help children improve self-reliance, raise self-esteem, and master personal safety skills--all while reassuring them that most people are kind, safe, and committed to their well being. Students learn to identify specific signs and behaviors often used by predators.

You, as the parent, are the primary educator of your child. If you have concerns as to whether this material is appropriate for your child, you are welcome to contact us with your questions and concerns. The presentations will be conducted throughout the months of November and December.

Please complete and submit the attached form https://forms.gle/FkBskR7Co7DaZzbr8 by September 5, 2023. Should you decline to allow your child to participate in the Child Protection Catechesis Program at SCS, you will receive the materials so that you may discuss the issue at home.


Thank you for all you do. Saint Catharine of Siena, pray for us.

Mrs. Marcella Kraycik, Principal
