The Class of 2027 took on the Smoky Mountains for their Senior Leadership Trip!

From celebrating Mass at St. Mary’s and hiking to some of the highest peaks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park to zip lining, roller coasters at Dollywood and a pirate-themed dinner show, the week was filled with faith, adventure, and plenty of memories.

For the first time the entire senior class and their chaperones reached the summit of Mount LeConte together! The challenging 10-mile round-trip hike took them to 6,593 feet—the third-highest peak in the park. They also made the climb to Kuwohi (formerly Clingmans Dome), the highest point in the Smokies at 6,643 feet. CLIMB Works

The Class of 2028 hit the road for their Junior Leadership Trip!
Our juniors toured UMKC, Pittsburg State, Missouri Southern State, Kansas State, Benedictine College, and the University of Oklahoma. Throughout the journey, they remained grounded in faith through Mass and prayer, including a meaningful visit to the Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine, with some fun at the Kansas City Zoo along the way!
Rooted in their class virtue, Libertas (Freedom), the trip encourages students to look beyond simply choosing a college and begin asking a deeper question: Who is God calling me to become, and where can I best answer that call?

Through faith, community, and exploring a variety of college campuses, our juniors took an important step toward discerning life beyond OCA.

The Class of 2029 spent their Sophomore Leadership Trip serving alongside Hand in Hand Ministries in Auxier, Kentucky. Our students learned practical skills along the way, from safely using power tools and measuring accurately to installing materials and working together to complete much-needed home projects.

The week concluded with a community dance alongside the local families who so warmly welcomed our Griffins. Each year, our students give their time and talents in service and return home with new skills, meaningful memories, and a deeper gratitude for their own blessings.
