Welcome to the Nativity Parish School of Religion, or PSR

The PSR program is available to support parents, the first teachers of their children in the faith, in their mission of raising their children in the teachings of the Catholic faith. It is open to all active, registered members of Nativity Church.

Christian formation for children in grades K5 through eighth grade attending non-parochial schools meets on Sundays, 10:00 – 11:15 a.m. in the school building. Parents are also encouraged to sign up their K4 students. A K4 class will be formed if there are enough students signed up and there is the availability of a catechist for this grade level. The link to the PSR Registration Packet contains a welcome letter, registration form (all children in a family may be registered on the same form), a PSR Parent Handbook, information and opt-out forms for the Teaching Touching Safety Program, and a PSR Calendar for the upcoming school year.

High school formation occurs within the context of Catholic Youth Ministry, CYM.

The parish strives to provide youth with opportunities to participate in local, state, and regional rallies, conferences and retreats. Please see the parish bulletin for the most updated information on current CYM activities for Sr. (9th -12th grade) and Jr. High 6th – 8th grade) youth or contact Mary Smith, Director of Religious Education, (dre@nativitycharleston.org) to have your e-mail address added to the High School or Middle School e-mail group for e-mail notifications of upcoming events. All Nativity Parish high school students are encouraged to participate and continue their faith formation.
