As part of our mission to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, we believe all students are called to be good stewards of their own time, talent, and treasure engaging in service as part of their educational growth. The Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School service hour requirement is intended for students to go beyond their current school and/or church obligations.
At our Middle School, students in seventh and eighth grades are required to attend one (1) service day organized by the school and made available for all middle school students. Of course, parents are always welcome! Each student is required to attend at least one of these service opportunities over the course of the school year. See page 43 in the Student Handbook.
