In the process of educating students, Catholic schools seek to provide students with various opportunities to begin fulfilling their God-given mission in life.
Students are required to perform at least 60 hours of volunteer service during their high school career. The work is to be done outside of school hours, e.g. after school, on weekends, or during summer.
Through this program our students will be empowered to live the example of Jesus Christ by performing service for the community and the Church
