At St. Margaret Mary, we provide our students with a beautiful hands-on component to religious instruction through our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program.  Every week, students in PK-3 through 4th grade come into one of our two Atria, which are equipped with handmade faith formation materials, in order to dive into the richness of our Catholic Faith and gain a better understanding of Scripture and the sacramental life of our Church.  This Montessori program has been instrumental in not only increasing our students’ understanding of Catholicism, but also in fostering an ever deepening personal relationship with our Lord.  We continue to grow Catechesis of the Good Shepherd at SMM every year and will be expanding to 5th grade in 2018-19.
