Welcome to Catholic Schoolhouse – Greensburg
We’re glad you’re here to learn a little more about our chapter!
Day/Time: We currently meet on wednesday mornings from 9:15-12:30. We re-evaluate before the start of each new year so please contact us for the current day and time.
Order of the Day: Our day will begin with morning prayer, chorus, and the Pledge of Allegiance. Children will then move into their age appropriate academics class where they will learn and review memory work, enjoy hands on art and science classes, and have a snack. After classes, we will all join back together for closing prayer and announcement. We can then share lunch and fellowship before heading home.
Books/Supplies/Fees: Catholic Schoolhouse just went through a majoy restructuring to make our program more accessable to large families!!!! For full details please visit our Annual Fees Page here.
Each family is responsible for purchasing one Tour Guide- “Tour 1, 2, or 3 depending on the year” from the Catholic Schoolhouse Store or through your local chapter at a bulk order discount. The tour guide is your resource for all the memory work that is covered each week. This book allows you to dive deeper into the topics discussed each week in whatever style suits your family best!
