Homeschool

Faith Formation for Families Teaching Children at Home

There is a communal aspect in sharing the knowledge and joining in the practice of our Catholic Faith. The participation of every family in the support of the our parish program is not only encouraged, it is also vital to the success of this parish's future within the larger community. We ask that you pray about your choice to homeschool your child and actively look for ways to become more involved in the life of the parish if you find you have no other alternative but to elect this option. All families are asked to attend or watch weekly liturgies, attend online parent meetings, and participate in seasonal liturgical events as noted on the Parish Calendar.

Grades 1, 3 - 8 Homeschooling

Again this year for 2021 - 2022, we are using an on-line provider for our grades 1, 3 - 8 families who choose the homeschooling option. After you register, information on how to access your student's account will be provided via email. Any questions, please email the director, Brenda Terranova, at grades 1-5@sttheresanreading.org or grades6-8@sttheresanreading.org.

Once you have registered for homeschooling in grades 1, 3 - 8:

1. The provider will email you instructions to access your child's account. You should receive one email per child. After you receive the instructions, go to the website and click on the LOGIN rectangle in the upper right corner. Follow the instructions provided.

2. Complete the lessons in the order listed. This is a self-paced course, but you should plan on completing at least one lesson per week in order to finish the course by next spring.

3. If you have any difficulties accessing your child's account, please email the director (Brenda Terranova) at:
grades1-5@sttheresanreading.org or
grades6-8@sttheresanreading.org.

Grades 6 - 8 Homeschooling

For the 2021 - 2022 year, we plan to use My Catholic Faith Delivered for our students who elect the homeschool option in grades 6 - 8 (see description above). We made this choice for our middle school students this year because My Catholic Faith Delivered does not require that we distribute workbooks since all of the content is delivered online.

In the past, we've used Ascension Press programs for grades 6 - 8. These require that you pick up a lesson plan guide and workbook. We do still have these programs available. If you are interested in your student using one of these programs instead of My Catholic Faith Delivered, please email the director (Brenda Terranova, grades6-8@sttheresanreading.org). We can discuss which of these programs would be the best fit for your student and arrange for the pick-up of materials.

Here are the programs we have lesson plans available for:
