SKD Lessons
|
 |
People often ask about the curriculum at your parish school, St. Katharine Drexel. I find that sometimes the greatest lessons do not fit into the usual categories of the 4 R’s – Religion, Reading, Writing, or Arithmetic. A parent recently told me about a family outing to Taco Bell. One of the children noticed an elderly man trying to get in the door while struggling with his walker. Without much thought, the child got up and held the door. The man was grateful. After a short time, the man came over and gave the child $2.00. The child tried to refuse it, but the man insisted and said that it is so nice to see children caring for others, something he noted was rare in children these days. The child accepted the money but said he was going to donate it to the missions. The next day, the child came to school and folded the money and put it in the “mission pig” in the classroom. Money from the “mission pigs” support three children in an orphanage in Cochabamba, Boliva, through Pan Y Amor. It seems so simple – but it is very profound. We are very proud of our SKD children who learn, both at school and at home, that Christian service should become routine.
