Students volunteer for the day at Monument Crisis Center through their Food Distribution Program. Students will be organizing and preparing the Center’s food warehouse, and they will have an opportunity to learn more about how the Center serves their local neighborhood. This field trip will be chaperoned by your student’s Symbols and Ethics teacher and additional teachers.
How Will Students Prepare for and Travel to Monument Crisis Center?
The students will be taking a bus to Monument Crisis Center. We ask that students arrive at school at 7:45 AM. The bus will be leaving Carondelet High School at 8:15 AM. Students will return to Carondelet High School by bus at 1:30 PM, where they will conclude their immersion experience with a reflection in the chapel. The estimated end time is 2:30 PM.
COVID-19 Guidelines
Monument Crisis Center requires all of its volunteers to be fully vaccinated and wear a mask that fits snuggly around the nose and face. Volunteers will need to show proof of vaccination upon arrival at Monument Crisis Center. Volunteers may show their physical vaccine card, a picture of their vaccine card, or their digital COVID-19 vaccine record (QR code). Digital COVID-19 Vaccination Records can be retrieved at https://myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov/. Volunteers are considered fully vaccinated if they have received at least two doses of the vaccine.
If your student feels sick on the day or morning prior to your field trip, they will need to stay home.
Please review these important details that will help your student prepare for the immersion:
-
Attire: Jeans (no rips, holes, or distressed) or other uniform pants and a Carondelet top. NO LEGGINGS. Because we will be representing our school, we want to make sure we dress professionally and appropriately. We appreciate your help in making sure that your student is dressed appropriately.
- Students will bring their COVID-19 Vaccination Record (physical card or QR code) and a mask with them to Monument Crisis Center.
- Bring water, a snack, and lunch. Students may bring a small backpack to carry these items to Monument Crisis Center.
- Students will also bring one food item to donate to Monument Crisis Center. Please bring one of the following items: cereal, peanut butter, squeezable jelly in a plastic bottle, spaghetti, or snack bars.
