Prayer for Student Protection

Heavenly Father, I entrust this student to Your loving care.

Protect them as they go to school each day. Guard them from all harm, danger, and evil influences.

Send Your holy angels to watch over them in the classroom, on the playground, and on their journey to and from school.

Grant them wisdom to learn, courage to stand up for what is right, and kindness toward their classmates.

Help them to grow not only in knowledge but also in virtue, faith, and love.

Bless their teachers and all who work in their school. May the school be a place of safety, learning, and growth.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
