LEADING THROUGH SERVICE

In addition to the academic and extracurricular programs at Kellenberg Memorial, students also share in a faith experience within the context of a Catholic school community. All activities, both inside and outside of the classroom, are carried out in the spirit of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Through the spiritual dimension of their education, students grow into mature, Christian men and women. Retreat Programs are held in Emmanuel Retreat House on campus, at Stella Maris Retreat House in Islip, New York and at Founder’s Hollow, a Marianist Retreat facility in upstate New York. The following programs contribute to the faith dimension:

• Community Marianist Leaders • Community Service • C.R.O.S.S. Divisions • Daily Morning Mass • Divisional Prayer Services • Eucharistic Ministers • Founders Keepers • Gregorian Consortium • Jubilee Choir • Parish Religious Education Program • Retreat Staff • Sacristans • Sodality • S.M.A.R.T. (St. Martin’s Aerschool Recreation & Tutoring) • S.A.L.T. (Service, Allegiance, Leadership, Teamwork) • St. Cecilia’s Recording Club • St. Thomas Aquinas League • Ushers • XLT

No service hours are required for students, yet 77% of students participate in a service activity, both at school and with outside organizations. Leadership is cultivated through service, and as students reach their junior and senior years, many opportunities arise to assume leadership roles within the school community.
