PREP Classes have begun! If you have not registered, many classes are already closed. We will do our best to keep families together, but we cannot guarantee this. For new students, registrations will only be processed if: the family is registered at Incarnation; you have a copy of the student's baptismal record; and if you are in Level 2 or higher, verification from previous parish or progress report. Please call the PREP office at 856-468-7566 if you have any questions.

Registration for PREP classes for the 2011-2012 catechetical year are now being taken. If your child is new to the program, please contact the PREP office at 856-468-7566 or stop in the parish office for a registration form. Classes fill up fast, so please do not delay. There will be no increase in the PREP fees.

                  The tuition fees will remain as follows:

Child: $100.00; Two Children: $180.00; Three Children: $240.00; Four Children:  $240.00 + $25.00 for Student Textbook

There will be no First Communion and/or Confirmation Fees.

All fees are due on or before July 1, 2011.  If you are experiencing financial difficulty, please contact Sister Denise.  Please do not let this stop you from registering your child for classes.

Parents are entitled to know what their P.R.E.P. Tuition Fees include.  Your fees include expenses for the following services:  Stipend for the Director of Faith Formation, Stipend for the Assistant Coordinator of Religious Education, salary for the full-time secretary, office supplies, copiers, phones, mailings and communication materials, catechist workshops, pro-rated heating and utility bills, food and refreshments for student sacramental and retreat programs, student textbooks and classroom supplies, teacher supplies, etc.

If your child is above Level 2 and has not yet received First Reconciliation or Eucharist, please attach a note to your registration form indicating this so that the necessary steps can take place to make sure that your child is a part of this preparation.

P.R.E.P. News

Catholic School Students

If your child attends Catholic School you must register your child for the Sacrament program.  If he/she is in Grade 2 or Grade 8, please contact the P.R.E.P. office for a registration form.

Home Schooling

Students who are home-schooled are to register for the Religious Education Program and either have their Religion Program approved or get copies of our Religion series.  Please contact the P.R.E.P. office for registration forms.  Students in Levels 2 and 8 (sacrament years) must attend the regular P.R.E.P. program.

Special Needs Program

We are also having classes on Sunday mornings (9:15-10:30 AM) for children with Special Needs.  Any child who is unable to be mainstreamed into a regular education setting is MOST welcome.  ALL of our children are important to us and we do not want to see anyone left out!
