Senior students, have you ever thought about helping those who have been devastated by a natural disaster? If you have this passion, then this year’s mission trip might be for you.

You will get the chance to work with other students from our school board for one week. This opportunity to live your faith by helping others is open to all senior students. The tentative location for this year’s mission trip is southern Louisiana to help in the relief of damage caused by over a decade of hurricanes and flash flooding.
