Religious Education
But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them;
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." -Matthew 19:14
St. Margaret of York’s Religious Education programs provide an innovative and supportive approach to fostering a culture of faith within families. Our mission is to nurture and strengthen families in faith empowering parents and children to grow together as lifelong disciples of God. Through these programs we aim to embrace the curiosity of children and support parents in their role as primary catechists of their children.

Safe Enviroment
Our first priority is your child’s safety! All adult volunteers approved to work with children in our parish or school have completed a background check, attended training, and remain compliant with Safe Environment standards.

AN UPDATE, Fall 2026
There are two Safe Environment Office updates relative to background checks that will take effect this summer:
- Selection.com has informed the Archdiocese of Cincinnati that effective July 1, 2026, the fee for the initial online/electronic background check required for all new employees and volunteers will increase from $25 to $30.
- The Safe Environment Office of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati continually reviews its procedures to ensure the highest standards of child protection. As part of these ongoing efforts—and in alignment with U.S.C.C.B. recommendations—we are expanding our background check protocols.
In addition to the ongoing quarterly updates from the SELECTION.com database, all electronic background checks will now require renewal every five years.
Please note:
- A $20 fee will be charged by SELECTION.com.
- In some cases, additional county clerk fees may apply.
We appreciate your continued commitment to creating a safe environment for all. If you have any questions, please contact
Jacilyn Jackson.
