SERVICE LEARNING PROJECT
“Making a difference through actions of caring for others through personal contact, indirect service, or civic action, either in school or in the community, with preparation and reflection.”
Students in grades K-5 are required to perform Christian Service as part of their religion curriculum. Students in grades 6-8 are required to perform Christian Service as an extension of their religion curriculum. The purpose of the Service Learning Project is to encourage the student to gain a deeper understanding of themself, work with their family, collaborate with their school, and go outside of their immediate family and friends to reach out to others in the community.
Each student will receive necessary forms and instructions to reflect on and document their service from their Religion teacher. Project requirements will differ among each class. A digital portfolio will be produced.

Grades K-1 Self Care
Grade 2 Reconciliation and Communion
Grade 3 My Home
