| The religious
development of each student is a prime purpose of The Summit Christian
Service program. Students serve each other, here in the Summit
community and, in addition, they reach out in service to those in
our greater Cincinnati community. This service offers our students the
opportunity to make a difference in the world around them while learning
more about who they are through relationship with others. |
Vision Statement
To
increase and instill Catholic Christian values through works of charity or
social action, so that all participants may better understand the presence of
Christ in all people and recognize their God given worth.

*
Those projects or actions that enable the Summit student to work with an
approved environmental protection agency for the responsible stewardship
of the earth and its resources (a total of 8 hours of the 48 hour requirement may be achieved through this
type of project or action). |
Distribution of
Hours
Every Upper School student is required to complete 48 hours of applicable
community service. The ideal scenario for completing hours would be:
|
*
Students
complete 12 hours of service for each of their four years in the Upper
School (totaling 48 hours by the second semester of their Senior year). |
|
* Students would
complete the first 24 of those hours in various agencies (working to get
a variety of direct service experiences) and then complete the rest of
the hours in one or two agencies (getting to know the inner workings of
a service organization). |
Reporting Hours
Hours can be
reported by writing down:
|
* What the
service was |
|
* When the
service was done |
|
* The number
of hours direct service was provided |
|
* Getting the
signature of the project supervisor on the letter |
|
* Submit the
signed letter to the Campus Minister |
