SPIRITUAL FORMATION At Overbrook, faith is the foundation of every grade, including prekindergarten. In the pre-k program students become aware of God’s goodness and learn to care for and love people. They listen to Bible stories and pray daily. The spiritual formation of the child blossoms in the Overbrook Good Shepherd Atrium which students visit weekly. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a religious formation program that allows the child to be gently led by the Holy Spirit into a deeper relationship with Jesus, by surrounding him or her with the beauty and doctrine of the Church. Children experience their faith in a hands-on way in a specially created environment called the atrium. The teaching principals of Maria Montessori are incorporated into the program, though the primary goal is not the acquisition of information but rather encountering God through the Scripture-based hands-on activities.
SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES AT OVERBROOK In addition to classroom lessons, our youngest students grow in grace and knowledge through many activities that enrich their faith.
