Religious instruction is provided daily. It is, and always has been, the expectation of pastors as well as Holy Family Academy that children receive their sacraments within their own parish communities. First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion are celebrated in the second grade and catechesis is done throughout the school year. Confirmation is celebrated according to diocesan schedules and parish tradition. Students are well prepared to receive their sacraments in school and in their parish.
