Second Grade

Curriculum at a Glance

Students in second grade receive instruction in religion, language arts, health, mathematics, reading and/or literature, science, and social studies. In addition, instruction in art, music, and physical education are given weekly. Preparing and receiving the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist are a truly special part of second grade. Creating/coloring a design for the First Communion Altar Cloth based on the Corporal Works of Mercy is a treasured activity. Classes are both self-contained by homerooms and departmental.
