Classes begin after school, usually at 3:30 or 4:30, and last for one hour. (A few classes meet after work hours, but most begin earlier). We need teachers for various grades and for sacrament preparation (e.g. First Penance and First Communion). We are looking for dynamic and enthusiastic teachers who practice and will faithfully present what the Church teaches.
