Many students volunteer in several off campus settings.
A winter holiday program for a local nursing home is sponsored by the 7th and 8th grade chorus. The Beta Club generates funds to make purchases for the betterment of the school. Student Council sponsors an annual holiday gift-giving party for deprived children. Shadowing experiences give students opportunities to actually go to work places for on site observation and, in some cases, participation. Additional career insights are available to students participating in service learning projects.
