Mass Schedule
Holy Trinity Catholic School Students students in Grades K-6 will participate in a children’s mass on a weekly basis, Wednesday mornings at 8:30 a.m. The day of the week for mass may change if a Holy Day occurs on a different day during the week, or if school is closed on a Wednesday. Preschool and Prekindergarten students may attend mass at designated times. Uniforms are worn by Holy Trinity Catholic School students in Grades K-6 on Mass Days.
Parents are always welcomed and encouraged to participate in the children’s weekly masses. This will give them the good feeling that you are interested in their spiritual development.
Religion Ed. Curriculum
Religious education is the study of our Catholic faith where catechists intentionally pass on the traditions, beliefs, values, and practices of their religion. At Holy Trinity Catholic School this is done through regular religion classes in the classroom. participation in liturgies and para-liturgies, and service to others. To aide our teachers, the Diocese of Sioux Falls has created the Religious Education Curriculum Guidelines to follow. Any questions about the guidelines or the religious education curriculum at HTCS can be directed to the classroom teacher or school principal.
To view the guidelines visit the Sioux Falls Diocese Children’s Faith Formation website and click on Religious Education Curriclum Guidelines.
Religion
The Catholic faith is central to an education at Holy Trinity Catholic School. All students attend religion class, and students celebrate Mass once a week, which parents are welcome and encouraged to attend. Students participate in the Mass as lectors, Eucharistic ministers, musicians, and gift bearers. Classroom religious instruction prepares students for First Penance and First Communion. Non-Catholic students attend all religion classes and activities. Many such students have found that this instruction strengthens their own faith.
