Instructor
Mrs. Lana Rocheford
Term
2017-2018 School Year
Department
8th Grade
Description
Students will continue to grow in the understanding of their faith through studying models of prayer, scripture study, and faith retreats. Content emphasis will be placed on Church history: A.D. 100 to Church today, including the importance of the Gospel of Matthew as a foundational book of scripture to the Church, the Catholic Social Teachings, and living a moral and faith-based life.
 
Service learning is an important part of the 8th grade year with students expected to create service learning projects with their families and community as well as participate in service learning within the classroom.
 
8th grade is about faith-based servant leadership. 8th grade students will learn effective leadership skills as they take the lead in whole-school activities throughout the year including liturgies and prayer services as well as "faith families" (K-7 grade students in small groups).
