All students have different gifts and charismas. Some have the ability to let others see them; others need to be discovered in order to let their abilities show.

The role of a Catholic school, in regards of community service, is to allow their students to grow in charity for others, implementing Christian leadership.

Our community service projects are assigned for each grade. This will allow students to fully focus on one project at a time. By assigning each grade a specific community service project, coordinators have a more organized way to take control of hours accumulated per students and assistance to the activities.  Also  this will implement unity among classmates, team work, and make it easier to identify natural and potential leaders as well as those who need more work on to develop such skills.Each year, the students will have the chance to serve in a different community or project. This rotation of service project will allow the student to experience true service and the meaning of being a "Real Disciple of Christ".

E4C

E4C stands for “entertainment for a cause”. The project was started a year ago by Vanessa Solorzano’s group. Most of the members in such project are from the soon to be ninth graders. Therefore, the purpose of assigning the project to the 9th grade is so that this upcoming year the coordinators leave it well organized so that when the turn for upcoming generations comes, they may follow the structure underneath the project. E4C consists of entertaining children in the Mascota Hospital so that they are relieved from their pain and depression for a while.

Since there are 60 students in the future 9th grade and not all of them can go at the same time, the class will be divided into 4 groups of 15 so that 15 of them can go one Saturday per month. In the end, all students in the ninth grade would have gone one Saturday per month for 4 hours of community service a month.

CCP

CCP stands for Centro de Protección al Niño “Carmen Castro Padilla”. CCP is located in Sabana Grande, in Managua. The center assists children of scarce resources around the area by providing tutoring, daily shelter, food, and distraction to keep them off the dangers of the streets. The assistance of this project would be in charge of the 10th graders. The 10th graders would visit the center in groups of 12  (they are 50 students in the class) every Saturday morning to provide tutoring and games for the children.  In the end, all students in the 10th grade would have gone one Saturday per month for 4 hours of community service a month.

La Mascota 

La Mascota Project is part of the Interact club. This project consists of visiting patients in the Mascota Hospital (another part of the hospital different from E4C). Visitations are done not to entertain the patients, but to give them hope and friendship. The 12th graders would be in charge of coordinating the visitations. They will be divided in groups of 11 students so that they all get a chance to go once a month. In the end, all students in the 12th grade would have gone one Saturday per month for 4 hours of community service a month.

The students in the 11th grade would be in charge of preparing students from the school for their first communion and baptism. Classes will be given one time per week (4 times a month) by groups of 10 students from the 11th grade class.  The students may help in other areas needed to be provided at such school. In the end, all students in the 11th grade would have gone one Saturday per month for 4 hours of community service a month.

On the second Thursday of the month, they would have praise and adoration. On the third Thursday of the month, the students would have Bible Study.
