In Mormonism, Seminary is a weekday religious education program for high school students. It is designed to strengthen faith, teach church doctrine, and encourage daily scripture study. In areas with large LDS populations, classes are held early in the morning before school; elsewhere, they may be taught online or at church buildings.
Students study one of the LDS standard works each year — Old Testament, New Testament, Book of Mormon, or Doctrine and Covenants — with lessons that reinforce church teachings and moral behavior. Regular attendance is seen as a sign of spiritual commitment, and seminary graduation is often celebrated as a milestone in a young member’s faith development..
