HOME-BASED CATECHESIS:

The Bishop of Raleigh supports those parents who wish to provide home-based catechesis for their children. Home-based catechesis denotes that a family is assuming responsibility for religious instruction and formation in the home, as is their right. However, it is important to keep in mind that home-based catechesis of children is the cooperative effort between the children, their parents, parish leadership, and the diocesan bishop.

While children in home-based catechesis are not required to attend parish programs, it is strongly suggested that they participate in parish sacramental preparation in order to share faith with their peers and grow in their understanding of the life of the parish community.
Those who currently home-school their children, and are members of a Catholic home-school association, and wish to home school for the fulfillment of the diocesan religious education requirements, must make an appointment with the Director of Faith Formation to register their students with the home-school option, clarify the curriculum to be used, progress reports, etc.

SAINT JOHN PAUL II SCHOOL FAMILIES:
