Spiritual Life
As a Catholic Christian school, MBTA begins each day with community prayer first thing in the morning. Students are reminded daily that we are to be kind, respectful, act with care and look out for each other, as Jesus asks us to do.
Every student participates in religion class everyday and attends our weekly school mass at IC.
In the spring of each year, our baptized Catholic second graders are prepared to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation (Confession) and First Communion. In eighth grade, after attending an annual Confirmation retreat, our baptized Catholic students are prepared for the sacrament of Confirmation.
During the liturgical seasons of Advent and Lent students and staff participate as a part of religious instruction.
