A number of activities complement classroom religious instruction and teach students how to integrate their
faith into their daily lives.
Music Ministry - Grades Vary
Since music is essential to good worship, all students receive training in liturgical music. Music Ministry members serve as the principle ministers of music
for our Masses and other
worship services.
Class Service Projects - Grades Pre-K-8
Grade-level service projects each semester provide
students with opportunities to learn about helping others.
Various activiteis including Recycling, Special Olympics, and Buddy/Munchkins provide rich opportunities to learn while giving. Students bring joy to residents at Amelia Manor and other local retirement homes which are frequently visited. The Sisters of Mount Carmel
living in our convent enjoy our visits, especially those made by the PreK and K students. All students and faculty are personally committed to this service.
Campus Ministry - Grades 5-8
Students are responsible for caring for the Chapel, and setting up and serving as lectors for our
school Masses in the gym.
They sponsor total school projects such as
Soles 4 Souls and our Warm Coats Drive.
School-wide Service Projects - Grades Pre-K-8
Students participate in humanitarian projects benefitting our local community and beyond. These include
monthly Pantry Parties for Thensted, participation in
Heifer International, and sending school supplies and food to Our Lady's Orphanage in Jamaica.
Feel the Growl - Grades 4-8
Feel the Growl is a fast for world hunger led by our teen alumni. Students sign up sponsors and take part in a
23-hour fast and participate in activities, skits, song, prayer, reflection and, of course, fun. Money raised helps support local and global needs.
