Can you help me? I'm trying to find what kind of documents I have to have to move my daughter from her primary school in Italy to one in NJ. In which class usually they have the first Communion in USA? Thank you very much.

You'll need the child's birth certificate. You'll need the child's complete record of vaccinations. Public schools in the United States do not engage in any religious activity. Catholic students in the public schools normally take Catechism classes, at church, after school hours. If you want your daughter to take religious instruction, in school, you'll have to enroll her in a private Catholic school. Generally these cost several thousand dollars per year. Each US school district is different when it comes to placement of foreign students. My wife and I lived outside the United States with our 6 children for many years. When we finally came back in the 90's we enrolled them in American schools. We brought transcripts of their classes from their old schools along with their gradings and submitted it all to the school district we moved to in Maryland. They reviewed it and interviewed the children. Based on everything they placed them in the appropriate classes.
