Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
The cultural heritage of mankind includes other values apart from the specific ambient of truth. When the Christian teacher helps a pupil to grasp, appreciate, and assimilate these values, he is guiding him towards eternal realities.
(The Catholic School, 42)
Established by Sofia Cavalletti, utilizing Maria Montessori's philosophy of education, the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a powerful way to impart our Catholic faith and develop the spiritual life of our students. Students in Pre-K3-4th grade attend Atrium once a week, though most students wish it were more often!
Steeped in Scripture and rooted in a personal relationship with the Good Shepherd, students use hand-made materials to encounter the truths of our faithwhile growing in their love for God and His Word.
