of school are tightly knitted with arts, athletics, spirituality, service, leadership, and lots and lots of activity!
Each month, our activity calendar is fairly bursting with entries. Although most of those are adult-designed and directed, many service projects and activity suggestions are initiated by the student body. In addition to the predictable out-of-uniform theme days, student leaders have been responsible for fundraising ideas, service projects, schedule changes, a talent show, improved campus conservation and recycling protocols, and even a new tree on the property. Connecting learning with leadership is what a St. Robert education is all about!
Presenting the results of study also leads to some of the memorable experiences of elementary school. Science fairs, musical and theatrical performances, forensics, multi-media presentations, and hallway project displays are among the highlights at St. Robert.
Years removed from elementary school, however, what students will remember most vividly about the years from four to fourteen are the social connections. St. Robert students grow up in the kind of community that continues to shape their lives decades later. The Big Buddy program, parish middle school dances, eighth grade team-building retreats and community prayer – this is the stuff of which memories are made, and upon which a great life is built.
