3 3 Welcome to the High School Faith Formation Program for St. Mary Parish In this booklet, you will find a brief description of the faith formation program at St. Mary Parish, year by year grade requirements, class descriptions, ideas for service hours, and much more! For your convenience, this booklet can also be found on our parish website at Welcome to St. Mary Parish High School Faith Formation! Program Description Purpose: to engage the High School Students who are enrolled in the three-year Confirmation program in the process of learning about their faith through conversation to Jesus Christ that enables them to become disciples through the power of the Holy Spirit. Process: following the guidelines of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee to study Creed (11 th Grade only), Sacrament, Morality and Prayer, courses will be offered so that the students choose the subjects learned along with other opportunities to walk their faith within a community. Having the students choose their direction of study and engagement will allow them to take ownership of their faith which will lead to discipleship. The program will be flexible in order to allow them to not have to make choices with other activities but to make their faith a part of their lives. 3

4 Policies and Procedures 4 Scheduled Classes: Classes follow the 10:30am Mass on Sundays from 11:45am 1:15pm. Students are encouraged to attend the 10:30am Mass prior to the session start time or go directly to Bell Hall, for classes to begin promptly at 11:45am. See page 11 for class offerings. Materials: Students are expected to come to classes prepared, by bringing their Bible, Handbook, folder and pencil/pen to class each week. Bibles are given in 6th grade and handbooks are given in 9th and are to be used throughout the high school program. If the student has not brought their books for 2 weeks in a row, the student will be asked to repurchase their books. Discipline: The Parish site requires and expects youth to conduct themselves as God would expect them to. It is important to work together for the common good in creating an effective learning environment. The behavioral guidelines are based on three assumptions: All students have the right to learn. The catechists have a responsibility to teach. All youth have the responsibility to engage in behavior that is in the best interest of themselves, their peers, the catechist and the session. If a youth repeatedly forgets class materials, disrupts class, engages in inappropriate or offensive behavior, uses obscene language, the following disciplinary guidelines will apply: 1 st and 2 nd Offense: The child/youth will be corrected by the Catechists. This will be documented by the Catechists. 3 rd Offense: The Director will call the parent(s) for a consultation. 4 th Offense: The Director will immediately send the youth home with the parent. The parent will be asked to attend classes in order to remain in the class for the year. The youth and parent(s) will have a consultation with the Director before returning to the program. Note: Any student found with drugs or alcohol or shows signs of their use will be dismissed from program sessions and events. His/her parents/guardians will be notified immediately to pick the student up. 4

5 5 Attendance: Attendance to all classes is mandatory. All Religious Education classes must be attended, with serious family difficulties being the only exception. Exceptions should be discussed with the Director. No other activities - sports or leisure - should be viewed as more important. Youth learn their priorities from the example of adults. If your student is involved in sports throughout the year, please keep their schedules in mind while making your class selection. Program Event Fees: One half of the total program fee is due upon registration, with the balance due by February of the following year. Special event fees are due upon registration. Families with special financial circumstances or needs should contact the Director. All students will have access to our faith formation program. Permission Slip Policy: A yearly General Permission Slip will be filled out to cover any event for the year. If the event is off church property, the child is required to have a permission slip to attend. General Permission Slip forms can be downloaded from our church website at Group Individual Pictures and Release of Phone Numbers: Throughout the program year, photographs of the youth participating in various events may be taken. Some of these photographs may be used in the bulletin, on fliers or bulletin boards, parish website, or other media, etc. In addition, requests from St. Mary committee chairpersons or other volunteer coordinators are received for the names and phone numbers of children, youth, and families to help in many parish programs and/or events. Please date and sign the release for such information on the registration form. 5

6 6 Weather Cancellation: On Sundays when the weather is not safe for traveling, families will be informed via and a ROBO call. When possible, a decision to cancel classes due to inclement weather will be made by 5:00pm the Saturday evening prior to classes. If classes are cancelled, makeup classes will be scheduled. You must always use your best judgment. In the event that classes are not cancelled and you feel it is not safe, please call the Director of Youth Ministry to inform her that your student will not be at class. Your safety and the safety of our youth is always our primary concern. Open Door Visitor Policy: Parents are invited to visit their son s/daughter s class at their convenience. If you wish to sit-in on a class, please let the catechist know prior to the beginning of that class. Catechists and volunteers are responsible only for registered youth. Visitors, other than parents, can attend the class session only with advance permission of the catechist. Mass Attendance: Teens are required to attend Mass each weekend with their family and participate in the Liturgy through song, prayer, and Eucharist. By attending and participating as a family in the Eucharistic celebration, parents help guide their Electronic Devices: Upon arriving on the building s grounds for any activity, whether it is regular religious education class, retreats, or other youth activities, cell phones are not permitted. 6

7 7 Service Project Hours: Specific service hours can be in the categories of Family, Church, and Community. All service hours will be accepted from June May 2019 to be applied to the student s current formation year. Parents should help their teens to keep a record of their service hours, using the attached Personal Requirements Worksheet in the center of this booklet. Service hours can be recorded using an Individual Service Project Form. This form can be found on our parish website ( under Christian Formation/Youth Ministry Grades Forms must be filled out completely and turned in to the Faith Formation office or turned in to the student s catechist. Without the Individual Service Project Sheet, the teen will not be logged for the hours they have completed. The sheet must be turned in within two weeks of the service. Each year, ten hours of service are required. Parent Service: This is a large program and is only as good as the volunteers it takes to run the program. Please help when you can. There are plenty of opportunities. If you have questions, please contact the Director of Youth Ministry. NOTES: 7

8 Sacraments 8 Confirmation: The Confirmation program at St. Mary Parish, is a three-year program that begins in grade 9. This program is for those already attending the religious education program at St. Mary Parish and those attending 11th grade at a Parochial School. If your student has not been in the program for the required time, please contact the Director. Parents/sponsors play a vital role in preparing their students for this sacrament by first attending the necessary sacramental preparation meetings. First Reconciliation and Holy Communion: If a youth in the program has not received the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and Holy Communion, please contact the Director of Youth Ministry and arrangements will be made to prepare them for the sacraments. RCIA for Children and Youth There is a special program for youth or children over the age of 7, who are not baptized. This program parallels the adult program of RCIA but is geared toward the learning capacity of a child or youth. Participation in the parish's regular Faith Formation program is required. If a child/youth has been baptized in another faith tradition or baptized Catholic without any faith formation, special arrangements through the Director of Youth Ministry should be made. NOTES: 8
