CHRISTIAN SERVICE

The works of mercy are an abiding norm for disciples of Jesus Christ.  Students are required to complete a minimum of twenty-five (25) valid Christian Service hours each academic year they are enrolled.  One-hundred (100) valid Christian Service hours are required for graduation and to receive their diploma.  Christian Service forms are available in the Main Office and are to be submitted to the Christian Service Moderator.

All Christian Service hours for the academic year are due by May 1. 

Students deficient in their Christian Service hours are automatically enrolled in a summer school class to make-up their deficient hours.  

CHRISTIAN SERVICE AWARDS

Underclassmen who complete fifty (50) valid Christian Service hours or more during the academic year are granted the Christian Service Award at the Underclassmen Awards ceremony.  The deadline to qualify for this award is March 15.

Seniors who culminate two-hundred (200) or more valid Christian Service hours over the course of their high school career are bestowed with the Red Cord, which is worn over their academic gown at graduation.  The deadline to qualify for the Red Cord is March 15.

The Seniors with the highest number of valid Christian Service hours by the end of the first semester are eligible recipients of the Archdiocesan Christian Service Award.  These students are honored with a medallion bestowed by the Archbishop of Los Angeles at a Mass in the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels.  This medallion is worn over their academic gown at graduation.
