These trips will be numerous different days during the semester, and will be scheduled depending on a student’s orientation group. Approaching a student’s service day, each will be given a 行为准则 以及旅行/责任豁免书. A student may not attend the Freshman Service Day without these forms.

   

• What are service immersion trips at 大发彩票平台登录?

  Service Immersion Trips are a great opportunity for students to immerse themselves in different types of cultures and walk with those who need a variety of supports. Service immersion trips require a mature student who is eager to experience service firsthand and able to appropriately and maturely reflect on those experiences. There will be an application process for each immersion trip, and preference is given to upperclassmen. 在秋天, we will plan a trip to La Puente Shelter in Alamosa, 科罗拉多州, to a border and immigration trip to Tucson, 亚利桑那州, 和墨西哥, and to a home restoration 网站 in the 丹佛 Metro Area. In the winter/spring, we will plan a trip to Blackfeet Indian Reservation in Browning, Montana. Every other summer, we will plan an immersion trip to our twin school, St. John Baptist de La Salle Catholic School, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Additional trips may be added at a later date.
