Freshmen and sophomores have a few weeks left to complete their required religion service hours. Some of the opportunities available include serving at local food pantries, babysitting, and tutoring younger students. Students may check the available opportunities in Student News under the Ministry & Service tab, though they must sign up in the Ministry & Service office.

Each religion teacher sets their own due date for the completion of service hours. Encourage your child to check their class's due date and encourage them to sign-up for a service site before it's too late.

MINISTRY & SERVICE
From the Chaplain's Office
Today marks the beginning of the Paschal Triduum in which we celebrate the Passion, Death and Resurrection of the Lord. In my opinion, these liturgies are some of the most beautiful and powerful celebrations of the Church year. I would encourage you and your students to attend one or all of Triduum liturgies on Holy  Thursday, Good  Friday, and Easter.  Be assured of my prayers for you as we begin Spring Break. May we all find refreshment and rejuvenation in the Risen Christ!
