Faith Formation
Curriculum and Standards
Kindergarten through Grade 8
An advisory committee with representatives from all seven vicariates worked with diocesan officials in the development of this curriculum for youth in kindergarten through grade eight. This substantive, sequential, and systematic document is integral to Bishop Sample’s vision for faith formation and education in the Diocese of Marquette. It flows from his commitment to bring the church together in a spirit of collaboration and unity for the sake of increased evangelization. It will ensure a consistent presentation of the faith throughout the diocese. This standardized curriculum was implemented in all parishes, missions and catholic schools of the diocese beginning Fall 2009. All parishes, missions, and catholic schools were provided textbooks to implement the new curriculum.
The advisory committee has developed a high school curriculum utilizing the US Bishops' DOCTRINAL ELEMENTS OF A CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK for the Development of Catechetical Materials for Young People of High School Age published in 2008.
The development, publication, and implementation of the curriculum and purchase of new textbooks were made possible by a generous donor and a grant from Legacy of Faith.
