Civic Responsibility

We encourage students to make the world a better place through community service and active citizenship. Students learn about civic responsibility through volunteering in the community and voter registration drives.

“Students are prepared to go out and change the world in a positive way. There is a lot of community service. Young people are taught to give back.”
