Christian Service hours provide concrete opportunities for all students to build community by serving others as Jesus did. Middle School students are required to earn two hours during the Fall Semester and three hours during the Spring Semester. Students must complete their hours and report to their Theology teacher.
Because service is a direct expression of religious conviction, accountability for service projects is maintained through Religion class. All students will receive a grade for this service during their 2nd quarter Religion class and their 4th quarter Religion class. While grades are taken during the 2nd and 4th quarter, service can be completed in the 1st and 4th quarter as well. However, students may not complete their 4th quarter service during the first semester.
Since students belong to several communities, the Christian Service Program is directed toward the needs of the school, parish, and local communities, thereby providing students a variety of opportunities through which they may be of service to others. If a student has a question regarding what activities are acceptable for service, they must contact their Theology teacher or the Principal.
