Welcome to St. Patrick's Religious Education Program
Information & Registration Page
(718-979-1272/religioused@stpatrickssi.org)
Thank you for your interest and commitment in enrolling your child(ren) in St. Patrick's Religious Education (RE) program. Your children will receive a solid, vibrant, and joyful foundation in the faith. Class size is small (20 students, often much smaller), and our Volunteer Catechists are experienced and caring. Sending your child(ren) to Religious Ed every year from 1st through 8th Grades helps secure them a solid foundation in the faith and helps qualify them to receive their Sacraments on time with their peers.
Early Bird (Re)Registration for St. Patrick’s 2022-2023 Religious Education (RE) runs through May 31, 2022. Classes are Tuesdays from 4:15 - 5:45 pm September through end of May. In order to qualify for the Early Bird Tuition, you must (re) register your child/ren by May 31. (The last scheduled day that the RE office will be open is Tuesday May 31; we will officially reopen again in September.)
Religious Education Classes for Grades 1st - 8th are
Tuesday afternoons 4:15 pm to 5:45 pm September through end of May
Before (Re) Registering your child/children, please be sure that you and they will not have a scheduling conflict for the entire 90 minutes. Late registration does not guarantee a space for your child in the incoming class.
