Teacher Resources
This page is dedicated to providing resources for our Archdiocese of Detroit Catholic Schools teachers and faculty. Be sure to check back for information and registration links regarding teachers and administrators conferences, AOD seminars and more.
Virtue Project
The Virtue Project contains lesson plans created to strengthen the Catholic Identity of Catholic Day School and after school Religious Education.
Curriculum
Under the leadership of Archbishop Allen Vigneron, and in response to the Archdiocese of Detroit’s evangelization initiative to Unleash the Gospel in Southeast Michigan, the Preschool – Grade 8 Religion Curriculum has been revised to incorporate evangelization with catechesis in our Catholic Schools and Parish Faith Formation Programs.
We recognize that science is a core academic subject with an allotted share of instructional time and resources, and that there must be careful and deliberate articulation of the Diocesan Guidelines across grade levels. This curriculum is designed to stimulate curiosity and to develop morally responsible, scientifically literate citizens.
Standards for math, language arts and social studies are available via the links below:
- Kindergarten
- First Grade
- Second Grade
- Third Grade
- Fourth Grade
- Fifth Grade
- Sixth Grade
- Seventh Grade
