The Parish School of Religion (PSR) provides catechetical instruction to children and youth so they can grow in intimacy with Jesus, be knowledgeable about their faith, and integrate the teachings of the Gospel into their lives. Parish religion programs also prepare youth for the reception of first sacraments. For more than 150 years, with hundreds of students, our program hopes to assist parents in the faith formation of their children.

The PSR assists parents – the primary educators of their children – with classes that teach liturgy and sacrament, prayer, church history, morality and the Christian community, and evangelization and apostolic life.
Students in Grade 2 will prepare for First Holy Eucharist in May 2027, while students in Grades 7/8 will prepare for Confirmation in Spring 2027. There are attendance requirements for both, and a required Confirmation Retreat on Sunday, February 7 from 1pm to 8pm.
As parents are the primary educators of their children, and play a unique and irreplaceable role in their child’s spiritual life, we require all PSR children and their parents to be registered parishioners at St. Ann’s Church and to attend Sunday Mass each week. Parents will also be expected to participate in the religious education of their children in various ways throughout the year.
