NEW: Assessment of Religious Knowledge (ARK test) March 27

The Archdiocese has asked Saint Agnes to help pilot and administer the ARK standardized test to students in grades 2-12. This assessment measures how well our students are learning the “head knowledge” of the faith: doctrines, dogmas, Christian/Catholic terms, moral teaching, etc. We will administer this test with paper and pencil in all of our Religion/Theology classes on Thursday, March 27. Students do not need to do anything extra to prepare and the results do not have any effect on their school grades. We will report scores once we’ve received them back from ARK in the late spring/early summer.

Here’s some more information:

• Grades 2-12
• Sample Questions from ARK
• Grades 2-6: about 25-30 mins.
• Older grades: about 45 mins. (full class period)

Please contact Dr. Michael Adkins, Director of Academics if you have any further questions.

Aggie Parent Edits Book on the Saints & the Eucharist

Besides Our Lady, no one has loved Our Lord truly present in the Blessed Sacrament more than the Saints. But there have been some over the years whose particular passion was devotion to the Mass and the Real Presence. The Saints on the Eucharist--edited by Aggie parent Derik Mantel--will introduce you to those bright souls.
