Senior Year

The senior year is a continuation of what was begun during the junior year. Seniors are required for graduation to enroll in a course called, “Christian Service.” They attend orientation sessions the first week of school and complete 50 hours of Service at non-profit agencies that serve people who are in some way challenged, i.e., physically, developmentally, economically or academically. Their reflection is facilitated by faculty member in monthly reflection groups.

Seniors have the option of fulfilling their Service requirement the summer before senior year by enrolling in a school-sponsored program. These include: a 4-week summer school Christian Service class where 50 hours of service are completed locally; foreign immersion trips; volunteering as counselors at summer camps for the handicapped and at-risk youth. There is an application process for summer opportunities.
