Religion
Kindergarten students learn basic Catholic morals and values as they interact each day with teachers and peers. Students develop a sense of respect for themselves and others as they build meaningful relationships with others. The Golden Rule is an underlying theme as students strive to make good and right choices, as well as learn from their mistakes. Students learn to love others as Jesus has loved them, and this is displayed by acts of kindness, expressions of empathy, and the desire to help each other and those less fortunate.
