Philosophy:
North American Martyrs CCD Program
seeks to fulfill the mandate of Christ to teach the
gospel to all people. (MT 28:18-20)
As a religious institution, the
school seeks to assist Catholic parents in their duty as
the primary religious educators of their children by
teaching ecclesiastical doctrine and building community
through common prayer and Christ-like service.
Goals:
The goals of North American
Martyrs CCD program are:
- To offer instruction in Catholic doctrine and morals
- To provide an environment supportive of religious values

- To provide opportunities to participate in the Church’s liturgy and devotions
- To unite parents, students, and the church in the work of Catholic education
- To lead students to hear and respond to God’s call to holiness, a particular state
in life, apostolic action, and heaven
- To prepare students in the 2nd and 5th grades to receive the Sacraments of
Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist, and Confirmation.
