PSR provides for the religious instruction of the youth of our parish.  Classes meet on Sunday from 9:00-10:15.

Our curriculum is sourced from a variety of providers.  Those in grades K→1, as well as those in grades 3→7 will cover elements of Catholic doctrine through the Lectionary based lessons offered by the Pflaum Gospel Weeklies series.  Gospel Weeklies also offer a plethora of at-home resources that parents (and grandparents) are encouraged to use with their child(ren).  To check out the Gospel Weeklies at home offerings click here – or the Gospel Weeklies graphic.

Youth preparing for the Sacraments of Confession* and Eucharist* will use the “We Believe” book series published by William Sadlier, Inc – the Catholic Identity edition; this resource focuses intently on preparing youth to receive these two critical sacraments of our faith.

Young adults entering into our Confirmation Formation Program* make use of the “Decision Point” series that is published by Matthew Kelley – which helps them apply the faith to their everyday life.

*  In order for a student to be eligible to participate in sacramental preparation, they must have participated in the PSR program during the year PRIOR to the academic year during which they desire to receive the sacrament.  Additionally, they must be regular in their practice of the faith (eg. weekly Mass attendance).

Registration for the 2025-2026 PSR year is underway.  If your child was enrolled in the Sacred Heart of Jesus PSR program for the 2024-2025 academic year, you received a PRE-PRINTED registration form VIA EMAIL on 5 June 2025 that should be reviewed, updated, and returned with the PSR fee.  Anyone who is registering new students, or who is registering mid-year, for the 2025-2026 academic year should complete a registration form by clicking the graphic to the left ◄ ◄ ◄.  New student registration priority is given to families who are practicing members of the Sacred Heart Parish Community; new registrations from families of other Catholic parish communities will be accepted on a space-available basis.

If you have a child to be enrolled, or you desire to be PSR Teacher, contact Bridget Boardman 440.707.6707 x6.  To register your child for PSR, click here to download a PDF copy of the PSR registration form.
