Christian Youth Formation

General Information

Welcome back to CYF known as Christian Youth Formation.

Registration Fees/Forms: If you cannort afford the fees, please do not hesitate to contact Mark Lyons (DRE). No child will be denied religious education due to financial circumstances. We would love to see your child in our program rather than not participating at all. We do offer special programs if your child is attending sports, drivers education etc. on a Wednesday evening. Fill out your registration form and mail it before the August 15 deadline for your special discount to apply.

Calendar: The calendar has the listing of all dates and important activities during the year. There are many family and child spiritual, social and fun activities during the year. After class on Wednesday evenings, we do have open gym for those who do like to hang out and have fun. Watch the calendar.

Retreat: There is a special retreat planned during the school year for middle and senior high school youth - St. John Bosco Youth Day at Holy Hill. Sign up for this event and send in your permission slip along with your registration fees. Again, if you cannot pay for them immediately, we can make arrangements for payments.

Volunteers: If you plan to volunteer and have not completed the 'Safeguarding All of God's Family' program this must be done prior to the start of the school year. The program requires a criminal background check; read and sign the code of ethics; and attendance at a 3 hour training session. More information is available on the Safeguarding page and the forms are on the Forms page.

Handbooks: Handbooks will not be mailed. Each family will receive a handbook with all the CYF information at the beginning of the CYF school year. Please be sure to read it when received.

Athletics Students enrolled in CYF and entering 5th through 8th grade are eligible to participate in the sports programming at John Paul II Academy.

If you have any questions, please contact Mark Lyons (DRE) at 262-634-3607.
