Our school family supports our community families through a regular schedule of service activities. The fall brings our Operation Turkey campaign, followed by Toys for Tots, our Christmas Family adoption, and Joe 15 coat and blanket drive. Our Joe 15 Team meets twice a month to support local community needs. The cornerstone of our fall efforts is our annual golf tournament which supports a different community outreach each year. The middle school students carol at local nursing homes and Christian bookstores, while also assisting our senior citizens with shopping and wrapping tasks.
Winter student projects have included the Prince William Animal Shelter, The Ronald McDonald House at Fairfax INOVA Hospital, and our recuperating troops at the Bethesda Naval Medical Center. Teachers and students have contributed time and talents to the children at B.A.R.N., a residential center for families in need.
Spring brings St. Jude’s Research Hospital Math-a Thon as our community focus. Over the past 20 years, our students have raised over $85,000 for pediatric cancer research and patient services.
