Holy Family School is proud
of the many programs and activities we offer to enhance
our children's Christian faith. Our many programs offer
a solid foundation on which our students can build and
develop a strong Christian faith which will enable them
to be strong individuals committed to being our future
leaders in our faith communities. |

Sacramental Preparation
For those students wishing to receive the Sacrament of
Reconciliation and Eucharist, Holy Family offers a program in
partnership with our students' parents in preparation for these
sacraments at the second grade level. The students participate
in a full day retreat presented by the second grade teachers and
the Director of Religious Education as part of the preparation
process. Reconciliation is typically celebrated in early
December and First Eucharist in April. |

Mass Participation
All grade levels have the opportunity to plan and participate in
masses throughout the year. This provides a unique opportunity
for our youth to express their faith before our Christian
community.
Mass Buddies
Our older Elementary and Middle School students have the
opportunity to mentor to their younger peers through our Mass
Buddy Program. Our older students mentor to their younger
counterparts by attending mass, field trips, programs, prayer
services and other events with their "buddies" while
exemplifying our Christian values to their partners. This
program encourages our students to be positive role models while
creating a special bond between our youth and older students.
Adopted Parish - Dupity Haiti
Holy Family sponsors a sister parish in Dupity, Haiti. Dupity,
Haiti has very little in comparison to our lifestyles. This
sponsorship provides our students with knowledge of the less
fortunate who share our Christian faith. Throughout our program
year, our students have special service projects and programs
for the children of Dupity, Haiti. One favorite is Christmas
Shoe Boxes filled with special items for the children of Dupity.
Community Service
Community Service projects are offered by our students
throughout the year. Some of the past projects are: hosting our
senior citizens dinner, collection of food goods for the local
food bank, caroling at the local assisted living community and
many more. Through their many community services our students
learn that sharing our gifts and talents with others can be very
rewarding for everyone including themselves.
Living Our Faith
Holy Family students have the unique opportunity to share and
grow their faith through many special programs offered at Holy
Family School. Some of these are: |
