Formal religion instruction holds the place of honor in the curriculum.  Classes include an ordered presentation of the Catholic Faith through the study of Christian Doctrine, the life of Our Lord, the Mass, the Liturgical Year, Bible History, and the Lives of the Saints. The child is taught to memorize his catechism (Baltimore Catechism), and at the same time to see behind these truths the Face of Our Lord, calling him to a life of holiness in union with Him. Thus the students  are encouraged to develop a profound spiritual life in union with the liturgical and sacramental life of the Church.
