Preparing students to receive the sacraments is a time-honored practice of the church, and serves as milestones in a lifelong journey of faith formation.
Together with their parents, teachers, and parish priests, our students prepare throughout the year with religion classes, sacramental meetings, and attendance at Mass and adoration.
Students who are Catholic receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist in second grade. In eighth grade, Catholic students receive the sacrament of Confirmation.

Religion is an integral part of our school day at St. Margaret of York. Our students and staff attend mass together each Tuesday at 8:15 AM. Parents and grandparents are welcome to join us.
Our 7th and 8th grade students develop leadership skills and the importance of community connection by mentoring the Kindergarten and 1st grade students during school mass each week. 7th and 8th grade students sit with the younger students to model proper church behavior and create friendships with the newest members of our school community.
Some Of The High Schools Our Graduates Attend Include:
Bishop Fenwick (co-ed) | St. Ursula Academy (female) |
CHCA (co-ed) | St. Xavier (male) |
Moeller (male) | Summit Country Day (co-ed) |
Mount Notre Dame (female) | Ursuline Academy (female) |
In addition to local public high schools, our graduating eighth grade students benefit from having a variety of fantastic private high schools in the area to choose from. We encourage our students and their parents to attend high school open houses and schedule shadow visits to help them decide which high school is the best fit for them.
