签名承诺服务
At Villa, we put our faith in action through service, helping people across our region and beyond. Whether our students and teachers are working in a soup kitchen or nursing home, volunteering with homeless people in Camden or children in Haiti, they interact directly with those they are helping. We prepare for these experiences and process them afterward through individual and group reflections, drawing insights about our world and ourselves. Community service stands out as Villa’s single most popular student activity, and one of our school’s greatest points of pride.
我们的承诺: At Villa, you will grow as a person by caring for other people.
