Common Catholic Prayers

We’ve compiled the different prayers students recite regularly, and the prayers they learn each school year. We encourage you to bookmark this page or print out the prayers so you have them as a family resource to pray together or to support your child as he/she learns the prayers: Common School Prayers at Valley Catholic Elementary School
