Service to others is a vital part of living out our faith and building a compassionate, connected community. Throughout the school year, students have multiple opportunities to give back and grow in empathy, responsibility, and Christian charity.
September: Harvest Mass Food Drive
Each September, we collect non-perishable food items to be presented during our annual Harvest Mass. Donations are then delivered to Lazarus House Ministries in Lawrence, MA, where they support families in need.
November: Thanksgiving Basket Project
In November, our Junior High students participate in a special Service Night to assemble Thanksgiving baskets, including full turkey dinners. Items are donated by our students and their families and are gathered through our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. Completed baskets are distributed to local parishes to help families in need celebrate the holiday.
NU (No Uniform) Day Charitable Collections
Once or twice each month, students may participate in a No Uniform Day by making a small donation in exchange for a uniform-free day. All funds collected are donated to designated charities, helping our students learn the value of small acts of kindness and generosity.
Junior High Community Service Hours
As part of their graduation requirement, Junior High students are expected to complete a set number of community service hours. This program encourages students to engage meaningfully with local organizations and develop a lifelong commitment to service and civic responsibility.
