Catholic Formation in 9th & 10th grade is a prerequisite for Confirmation in 11th grade for those not attending Catholic High School. The formation year has four components: Mass attendance, Formation, Retreat, and Service. Through these we hope to cultivate the opportunity for each student to encounter Our Lord, commit to a personal relationship with Him, and live as His disciple.
The theme for 9th grade is Identity: Who am I? Who is God? How do I relate to Him? How should I live? These are questions that the students will dive into with their small groups as they engage in discussion, activities, games, Scripture study, retreat, and personal prayer.
10th Grade
Catholic Formation in 9th & 10th grade is a prerequisite for Confirmation in 11th grade for those not attending Catholic High School. The formation year has four components: Mass attendance, Formation, Retreat, and Service. Through these we hope to cultivate the opportunity for each student to encounter Our Lord, commit to a personal relationship with Him, and live as His disciple.
The theme for 10th grade is Calling: Students will explore life’s purpose, their individual calling, what discipleship is, their role in the Church, and dependence on God to grow in greatness. Together with their small groups they will choose a path of deeper learning in the second half of the year. The formation experience will include discussion, activities, games, Scripture, witnesses, retreat, and personal prayer.
Preparation for reception of the Sacrament of Confirmation builds on the foundation that was established for students in 9th and 10th grade either through formation or Catholic High School. See confirmation HERE for all information.
