Freshmen | Saint Peter's Prep

Freshmen

Christian Service is a requirement for graduation at Prep. As a Jesuit school, we believe that it is invaluable for each student to spend time serving the underprivileged of his community, witnessing and coming to understand a different way of life. To fulfill their Christian Service requirement, freshmen are required to spend a day in service with their homeroom. For the 2011-2012 school year, the assignments are:

Homeroom	Activity	Date
1A, Mr. Brenkert	Picnic for Chidren from The Nurturing Place	October 5, 2011
1B, Mr. Caulfield	Afternoon at PERC Shelter	October 8, 2011

Additionally, students will attend an orientation session with me prior to their afternoon of service to prepare them, and a reflection session after to allow them to process their experience. These will take place during the freshman lunch period. Students will also be required to write a brief reflection paper. The questions for the reflection paper can be found HERE.

Freshmen must attend the day of service their homeroom is assigned. If the student ABSOLUTELY CANNOT attend that day, please contact Ms. Toomb at toombm@spprep.org or (201) 547-6457 immediately to discuss other dates.
