STUDENT LIFE As we run the race we are given many different roads to travel and a variety of sights to see along the way. Activities such as masses, dances, parties, and athletic events give us a second wind and make the running easier. Spiritually and socially we are refreshed and given incentive to continue running. Spiritually the school year starts off with the traditional Mass of the Holy Spirit at St. John's Cathedral. Hopefully we continue to grow throughout the year. Retreats in the fall bring us closer to God. Liturgies maintain this closeness by means of class masses, family masses, and penance services. Socially, many diverse attractions help us grow and have fun. Athletic events provide us with a chance to mix with friends and to lose our inhibitions while cheering. At weekend parties we celebrate each other's conpany in a casual, friendly atmosphere. The social scene reaches its pinnacle in the fall with the Homecoming Dance and in the spring with the Junior-Sophomore Dance and Senior Prom. Throughout the year, an assortment of activities enhances student life. Outside the classroom, they encourage our religious and social development. They keep us running.
