Spirituality

St. Edward School students are blessed to have Religion Class as part of each school day. Each week, one of those classes is taught by the Director of Religious Education. The week’s studies culminate in a school mass each Friday. Some of the masses are specially tailored to various events, including Grandparent Days, First Communion Celebration, Mass of Thanksgiving, and St. Katharine Drexel’s Canonization Anniversary.

• Readers
• Acolytes
• Music
• Gift bearers
• Liturgical dancing
