Confirmation Preparation

Confirmation is typically celebrated in 9^th Grade at St. Ignatius but is available to students in grades 9 through 11.  Confirmation Preparation classes focus on learning about the Rite of Confirmation and personal readiness to celebrate the Sacrament. Students must have completed a year of classes in a Catholic school or a parish faith formation program in the year prior to preparing for Confirmation (8th grade).  Confirmation Preparation classes are required for both Catholic School and public-school students.
