Lancaster Catholic High School - Good Samaritan Program

Good Samaritan Program

Service is an integral part of the educational process at Lancaster Catholic High School. The Good Samaritan Program has been established by James Rogers for all students to foster the proclamation of the Gospel, and to form good habits of service to others. The Good Samaritan Program is being promoted with two goals in mind: first, to help fulfill the needs of many community and civic organizations, as well as churches and parishes, who rely on volunteer hours to accomplish many of their own goals; and second, to give ALL students at Lancaster Catholic High School an opportunity to be OF SERVICE to the Church, school, and community.

Each student, as approved by Lancaster Catholic High School Board policy, will be required to perform 20 hours of non-remunerated (no salary or wages) service to school, church, or community per year. Accredited service must be performed at an approved location or have the approval of the Director of Service.

Famous quotes containing the word program:

    Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
