Community Outreach
Our Program
At OLPH School, we believe students learn about their place in the world community through participation in service and social justice activities that benefit the parish and our neighboring and global communities. Students use their talents and abilities in an effort to fulfill their potential as Catholics and active people of faith by servicing:
-
The Elderly
-
The Sick
-
The Homeless/Hungry
-
The Environment
Each class creates a partnership with a community organization and sets personal goals for growth, keeping in mind how best to serve our community and involve students as well as their families in the process.
Creating partnerships within the community assists in building the sort of citizens that will later benefit the community in which they live.
