After reading all of the survey entries (thanks so much to everyone who submitted the survey) and listening to the directives from the Town of Franklin and the Archdiocese of Boston, we have decided to have the students (Grades 1-8) do his/her book at home. In addition to that we will be offering two webinars per month for each grade level. There will be more information about the program in a few weeks.
Remote classes will begin on Monday, October
5. We want to allow all of our families some time to get used to the "new
normal" with this school year. Each of our students (Grades 3-8) will be
receiving both a book and an e-book and they can choose whichever works best
for them--or even a combination. Grade 1 and 2 will have a slightly different
setup--more information will be given soon.
The Confirmation Program (Confirmation 1 and
Confirmation 2) will continue to use Dynamic Catholic’s Decision Point program,
a primarily video-based series. This year the program will be spread out over
the entire school year rather than condensed into a semester. All activities
will be completed online. Again, much more information will be distributed to
parents soon.
Registration will begin on Wednesday, August
12. You are able to register everyday/all day (24/7) with your credit card or
debit card at www.stmarysfranklin.org. The Registration will remain open until
Saturday, September 12 at 11:55 PM.
Here are a few bits of information that all
families need to know before you register:
- If you have a child entering
Grade 1 (First Communion 1) in the fall, you will be able to register
him/her online with the link below. You will be registering them as a New
Student. The exact date and church of Baptism is required.
- Payment is necessary at the
time of registration. It will not allow you to register and go back later
to pay the fee. If you need to pay with cash or a check, please contact us
so we can set up a time for you to come in and register. As always, if
anyone has a financial hardship that makes it difficult to register now,
please give me a call.
- An additional Confirmation Fee
($75.00) that covers the cost of everything pertaining to Confirmation is collected
at the time of Grade 9 registration.
- If you have any questions or
concerns regarding the Registration Process, please call the Religious
Education Office at 508-528-1450 or email us at reled.director@stmarysfranklin.org.
