Service Requirements
We believe an essential aspect of our mission is to provide an opportunity for our students to both learn to serve and serve to learn. Therefore, in addition to performing service as a school community, our students perform individual service as well. Through their service experiences, our students develop self-confidence, become aware of the needs of others, and recognize the many ways they can serve others with the talents God has graciously given them.
Our freshman, sophomore, and junior students perform service as a required component of their religion courses. The service requirements, which vary by course, include service at home, service in the community, and service at school.
Our senior students complete a three-week Senior Service Project in January, during which time they respond to the needs of others at a variety of locations in Clinton County, the greater metro-east area, and St. Louis, including day care centers, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, civil agencies, and social agencies.
