April OPTIONS FOR 7TH AND 8TH GRADERS

Below are additional age-level activities for students in 7th & 8th grade. Please note we ask each 7th and 8th grader to do 1 activity each month - either 1 family activity or 1 age-level appropriate activity. 

Please note that this month is also the month that all students are asked to complete the Called to Protect for Youth (CTPY) program, an annual requirement for all parishes in the Diocese of Austin.  
We ask all middle school families (6-8) to submit the CTPY worksheets as one of the family activities for this month.  Please read Option 1 below for more information.  ​​​
Option 1: Called to Protect for Youth: 6th through 8th grades

The Diocese of Austin has reformatted the CTPY program for the needs of this at-home year. The middle school-level lessons (6th-8th) have been combined to be one 3-part program that parents can complete with all their middle school students at one time. The teaching is through an audio presentation which includes topic discussions and student activity sheets.  You can complete the program by clicking this link: www.austindiocese.org/parent and follow the instructions to complete at-home.

The program should take roughly an hour to an hour and 15 minutes to complete.  Please take advantage of this program to educate your child(ren) on healthy boundaries, appropriate relationships and being safe.  Note: We are happy to print out the worksheets for you, if you would like. Just email and let us know.  

If you choose not to complete the program, please return the CTPY Waiver form below. 
​
Homework: Please email the worksheets or the waiver form to livia.telles-rodriguez@stcatherine-austin.org for each child.
