While OLG embraces students of all faiths, Religion is a core academic subject for students. The curriculum includes information about Catholic virtues, the liturgical calendar, prayers, religious vocations, lives of saints, the sacraments, and Catholic Social Justice. All students receive religious instruction, and each day begins with school-wide morning prayer.
Students live faith through student-planned weekly Masses, monthly visits to Eucharistic Adoration, service and stewardship, grade level retreats, and the study of one of the Catholic Social Justice pillars, (i.e. the call to "Help the Poor and Vulnerable" and "Rights and Responsibilities". Students have the opportunity to participate in our weekly Mass and seasonal celebrations such as the Living Stations of the Cross during Lent. As such, students gain experience in public speaking and students leadership.
