At Pius XI High School each school day begins with prayer and includes opportunities for worship and reflection. Under the guidance of Campus Ministry, students prepare and participate in a number of liturgies during the school year – 14 this past year.

 

Students also have classroom experiences centered on Catholic traditions such as the Stations of the Cross, The Rosary, Meditation and The Labyrinth. In addition, the Pius XI chapel is available to students and staff for private prayer. Students have the opportunity participate in a variety of retreat programs including: a freshman day of reflection, sophomore retreats related to the courses “Relationships,” “Rituals,” and “Discipleship”, an optional senior class overnight, and an overnight leadership retreat for those students most active in the Campus Ministry efforts.

 

The Campus Ministry Department also makes extensive efforts to reach out to Pius XI parents. In particular Campus Ministry works directly with parent volunteers in offering various Parent/Child Liturgies, as well as the annual Community Liturgy.
