Sacrament preparation program
In preparation for the sacraments the students will receive in second grade, the 1st grade will be involved in the Sacrament Preparation Program through St. Agnes Cathedral Church.
Each week, we will read and reflect on Sunday's Gospel and how we can put Jesus' teachings into practice in our daily lives. Once a month, each student will fill out a "Gospel Card" in class which will be brought to Mass on the assigned Sunday for Grade 1 students. The completed card should be placed in the offertory basket during Mass. Students may attend any Mass that weekend, but the 1st Graders will be recognized in a special way at the 9:30 a.m. Family Mass.

Meet the teacher
Hi, my name is Denise Donaldson and I am excited to begin another school year teaching 1st grade at St. Agnes. I attended Molloy College and received a Bachelors Degree in Psycology and Elementary/Special Education. I then continued my education at Adelphi University receiving a Master's Degree in Literacy. I adore 1st grade and I am always amazed at the growth I see in the students from September to June.
Outside of St. Agnes I am a busy mom of two boys. My husband and I enjoy spending every extra minute doing things as a family. I look forward to a faith filled, knowledge growing year with all of you!
