Mission Statement: The goal of Orthodox Christian Education (catechesis) is to nurture in every person a love for God and Christ and foster an enduring personal communion with the Holy Trinity.  To this end, students at Saint Katherine are encouraged to study the Holy Scripture, practice the Holy Commandments, honor the Church’s Holy Traditions, and worship in our Holy Orthodox Church.  All Catechetical School classes commence at 9:30 a.m. and dismiss at 10:30 a.m.  Students are expected to attend one of the two Divine Liturgies with their parents as an integral part of Church Life.
