SERVICE, EQUITY, and GLOBAL EDUCATION: Canary Island Exchange, Service Sign-Ups, Innerview Platform

Date:08/26/2525
Reading Time: 3 minutes

Our programs are grounded in the Ursuline core values of community, compassion, justice, integrity, and excellence. We believe in inspiring students to leave their comfort zone to serve those marginalized in our society, create a culture of inclusion and work towards achieving a more just and sustainable global world.

Opportunities 

In the upcoming two weeks, students will attend an assembly to explain these various opportunities.  After these assemblies, the students can begin to sign up for:

  • Bulldog Buddies, where SUA tutors meet with local elementary students to do homework help.
  • Student Outreach Services (SOS), where students do monthly service at one of 12 different sites throughout the entire school year.
  •  Social Justice and Equal Rights Club: Using the pillars of Catholic Social Teaching, this group will raise awareness, take action, and respond to issues of justice locally and globally.

  • Bulldog Boost Fair Trade Coffee Shop: The Bulldog Boost is a student run coffee shop located in the back entrance area of our Keller Student Center. This coffee shop serves a variety of drinks using fair trade coffee in compostable cups. It is part of our initiative on campus to educate our students about intentional and ethical purchasing.

WELCOME CANARY ISLANDS STUDENTS

Ten students from the Canary Islands are visiting this month, and we hope you get to meet them and give them a warm SUA welcome. This is an annual opportunity for SUA students to host an exchange student. For more information on how to host next school year, contact Rachel Kemper at rkemper@saintursula.org.

INNERVIEW Service Hour Platform

We are using a platform to document your daughters' community service involvement and the hours that they may want to document. It is called Innerview. After students create their account with their Saint Ursula Academy email, PLEASE REMIND THEM to go into settings and make sure it is on the private and not public setting. Saint Ursula Academy wants to make sure student personal information is private to only our SUA community.

Any questions about above Community Service Information, please contact Rachel Kemper at 961-3410 ext. 168 or rkemper@saintursula.org
