St. Margaret's is committed to helping students use their gifts
to acquire a better understanding of and keener sensitivity to
the needs and realities of their immediate and extended
community. Community service provides such opportunities.
As students serve others, they learn profound and life changing
lessons. Those in need of assistance often give back far
more than they are given. In the Episcopal tradition,
service to others is both our responsibility and our blessing,
for it is God who first served us.
We require all students to participate in the community
service program through grade level service requirements, in
class service learning activities, and a sophomore year service
retreat. Students are encouraged to move beyond these
requirements and work on other service projects in areas of
their choosing.
