Great Hearts Serve will be held on Friday, February 16! 

Cicero said, “Non nobis solum nati sumus”, or, “Not for ourselves alone are we born.” At Great Hearts, our aim goes beyond individual academic success. Rather, we aim to produce great-hearted leaders who will use the virtues they develop here to serve their communities.

This year, scholars will participate with their houses in a variety of activities, such as serving Lower School scholars through reading, crafts, and games; packing bags for two local outreach programs; and delivering small tokens to our neighbors close to the school.

All families must submit a permission slip to allow your scholar(s) to participate in off-campus activities. Please electronically sign as soon as possible!

We are currently collecting items for Great Hearts Serve; the item collection will be a House Competition between the two House alliances this semester! Bring your items through February 16 to the labeled bins in the front lobby.
