Pope John Paul students logging service hours to benefit Sandhills Children's Center.

In keeping with our mission to “form the hearts and minds of our students according to the teachings of the Roman Catholic faith”, our students are taught to help those in need, and those less fortunate.   Various service projects will help our children realize this mission. 

Pope John Paul II students did chores for friends and family, logging service hours, while earning monetary donations.  The donations were used to outfit a "kids sports" tree for the Festival of Trees which was auctioned off for $1,200 to benefit Sandhills Children's Center.
