retreats

Retreats are made possible through the efforts and energy of the students!  If you are interested in helping on a retreat team please 

contact Ms. Linden in Campus Ministry.

PLEASE NOTE: All students are required to attend one retreat each year.  Please note the date of your assigned retreat.  If the unavoidable arises and a student is unable to attend her assigned retreat every effort will be made to get her on another school retreat.  Due to limited accommodations on some retreats it may be necessary for students to make up the retreat through another venue.  See Ms. Linden if you foresee a conflict!
