Registration for Classes
Registration requires both the
registration form and attendance at one of the
parent orientation meetings listed above. Complete
the registration form selecting which day of the
week you would like each child to attend class. All
grades run during each of the designated time slots.
Please provide all the requested information
especially updated email, phone numbers, etc. and
return it with registration fees to the parish house
by August 31, 2007. If you are registering a child
for the first time and the child was not baptized at
Blessed Sacrament, we need the long form of their
baptismal certificate.

Parent and Adult Scripture Sessions
Parent/adult Scripture
study sessions will run at the same time as the
Grade 1 to 5 classes in the Community Room. These
sessions are the adult version of what your children
are studying and give you a chance to update your
own faith and be in a position to more actively
engage in conversation about the Sunday readings.

Class
Cancellation Policy
Religious Education classes are cancelled if the
Walpole School system cancels school for the day. If
Walpole has school and the weather deteriorates late
in the day any notice of evening class cancellation
will be posted on the Blessed Sacrament Parish web
site.

Preparation for the Sacraments
Whether your child is ready for
Reconciliation, First Eucharist or Confirmation the
preparation for sacraments is separate from other
Religious Education programming. Families with
children in second, ninth or tenth grades will
automatically receive information about the meetings
and events for these sacraments. Families with
children who have not received these sacraments are
invited to participate and should contact either
Bill Dittrich or Terry Witherell at 508-668-4700 to
be included.
