The instructional program of Holy Family School encourages a child to progress at his/her individual rate of learning. The curriculum meets the requirements of the Minnesota Department of Education and of the Diocese of St. Cloud.We are fully accedited with MNSAA (Minnesota Non-Public School Accediting Association) and a member of the National Catholic Education Association. Our program consists of a full-day kindergarten (four days a week), and grades one through six. The curriculum is interdisciplinary and covers the basic subject areas in addition to supplemental programs. This year, 233 students attend Holy Family School. There are 17 teachers and 29 support staff. Students, parents, and staff make up a family that works in partnership with the parishes, community, and surrounding areas.

The text books we use are as follows:

 

Religion: Hartcourt - Call to Faith

Language Arts: Scott Foresmann - Reading Street

Math: Houghton Mifflin - Math Unlimited

Science: McGraw-Hill Science

Music: McGraw-Hill - Share the Music

 

The teaching of religion is an integral part of the child's overall education at Holy Family School. The children have daily religion classes in which they learn about the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. Second grade students are prepared by parents and teachers to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist. All students are provided the opportunity to attend Mass. Students in third through sixth grade receive the sacrament of Reconciliation twice a year. It is our mission to spread God's word through our lessons, actions, and words.
