Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) offers three separate atriums: ages 3-6, 6-9, and 9-12. Currently, we are in our fifth year for Atrium I, and have recently begun Atrium II (first and second grades only). Classes are Mass-centered and follow the liturgical calendar, with special emphasis on Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost. CGS is based on the Montessori philosophy of allowing children to interpret material for themselves. Catechists make presentations that “call forth” a response rather than “pour in” information. Activities tend towards experiential repetition and are developmentally and scripturally appropriate for children.
