Arrupe Project
hg3088皇冠 Seniors end their classes in late April and spend the next four to five weeks on site at various institutions in the community: schools, day care centers, nursing homes, hospitals, etc. The students work at the site for five to six hours a day (the equivalent of a school day) working with clients for at least half of the time. They must meet with a hg3088皇冠 faculty adviser once a week to process their experience, and they write two 500-word reflection papers over the course of the month.
On the last Friday before graduation, the seniors return to hg3088皇冠 and several of them speak to the entire school community about their experiences. It is a graduation requirement--of course, it corresponds directly to the mission of hg3088皇冠.
The Arrupe Service Projects -- named for Fr. Pedro Arrupe, SJ, a former Superior General of the Society of Jesus -- have been part of the hg3088皇冠 experience since 1972.
