Spiritual Life – 2nd Grade

Throughout your child’s education at Saint Jerome Catholic School, they will have many opportunities to participate in spiritual and community-service activities. Each grade offers unique opportunities to help children develop their faith by building on earlier teachings.

One of the most important parts of 2nd grade is preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. During the preparation, students are introduced to new sacramental terms and prayers (i.e. the Act of Contrition). Students complete this sacrament sometime during Lent.
