The Saint Rita Parish School of Religion (PSR) addresses the needs of students as they grow in their faith. We offer programs that help children to:
- know the Lord
- grow in their Catholic Faith
- participate in the life of the parish community
The program is also designed to help parents to:
- be the first educators of their children in the life of the Church
- prepare their children for the reception of Reconciliation, Eucharist, and Confirmation
2025-2026 PSR registration cost: $110/child

Become a Catechist!
The Saint Rita PSR program is made possible by the benevolence and participation of Catechist volunteers. Saint Rita Parish invites you to share your love of Jesus with our children and teens! Previous teaching experience is NOT required, nor do you need to know every detail of the Church! Will you answer God's call? Please click the link below, and someone from the Parish Office will contact you. If you serve as a Catechist, the registration cost of PSR is waived for your child(ren).
Top 10 Reasons to Become a Catechist
1. The best way to learn is to teach.
2. You will teach the truth of the faith.
