PAREF Preschool North Rim

As we celebrate 50 years of forming hearts and minds, we proudly want to give back to the community and launch a meaningful project: Reaching Out in Love: 50 Seeds of Service.

Rooted in our mission of providing personal integral education and aligned with our core value of Service to God and Others, this initiative brings together the 17 PAREF schools nationwide in a shared commitment to give back. More than a celebration, this is a living expression of who we are—a community that goes beyond the classroom to make a difference in the lives of others.

The 50 Community Engagement Initiatives represent a series of outreach and community service programs led by students, parents, alumni, faculty, and staff. Each activity reflects the unique strengths and advocacies of our schools, responding to real needs in various communities—from education and formation, to health, environment, and social development.

Through these efforts, we continue to form individuals who are not only academically excellent, but also compassionate, responsible, and committed to serving others. This initiative highlights the spirit of unity among the 17 PAREF schools—working together as one community, driven by a shared purpose of building a better society.

As we mark our golden anniversary, we look forward not only to celebrating our past, but to actively shaping the future through acts of service, generosity, and love. In the coming months, we will feature each school's contribution to the 50 outreach activities. Each outreach activity to signify each year of existence of PAREF in the country.

Together, let us continue to make an impact—one spirit of service, one community, one life at a time.

Once PAREF, Always PAREF.

They say you never really leave PAREF—and they’re right.
From mentoring conversations, to coming back to teach, and to raising the next generation, the PAREF spirit lives on.

Ash Wednesday

“Coming closer to God means being ready to be converted anew, to change direction again, to listen attentively to his inspiration - those holy desires he places in our souls - and to put them into practice.”
– Point 32. The Forge

🙏

LENT is a beautiful time to remind every PAREF family to slow down, reflect, and grow together in the faith. 💜

Through PRAYER, we strengthen our relationship with God.
Through FASTING, we learn sacrifice and self-mastery.
Through ALMSGIVING, we share our blessings and love with others.

May this Lenten season shape our hearts, homes and schools to become places of prayer, sacrifice and generosity.
