The weekly religious education classes at St. Edward's are taught by wonderful, faith-filled volunteer catechists who want to help the children of St. Ed's know and love our Lord. All children from grade K to grade 8 who are not in Catholic school are encouraged to attend. Catholic school students in grade 2 or grade 8 should register for the 1st Reconciliation/1st Communion, or Confirmation programs, respectively.
Registration for the 2022-2023 year will be available sometime in the summer. Classes will start in September.
Fees: $45 for one child, $80 for two children, $110 for three or one children.
Late Fees (after August 15): $60 for one child, $95 for two children, $125 for three or more children
