Faith

Edgewood provides opportunities for all students to grow in faith. We begin each day with prayer and celebrate weekly community mass in our Chapel for any students and community members who wish to attend. Students of all faith backgrounds participate in our All School liturgies, and Catholic students can assist as acolytes, altar servers, and eucharistic ministers at Mass. 

Teaching Approach

Edgewood has a religiously diverse student body, so courses reach out to all students. We teach Catholic tradition, examine other faith traditions, and discuss commonalities and differences. Religious studies courses are academic in nature and graded. All students are capable of success in religious studies courses, regardless of religious or nonreligious background. For a list of all religious studies course offerings, please see the Curriculum Guide. Contact Jim Baltus, Religious Studies Department Chair, at james.baltus@edgewoodhs.org if you have any questions about Religious Studies curriculum.
