Two incredible retreat experiences are offered to Freshman.
1. Freshman Orientation with Link Crew
The first is with LINK Crew. In late August, the new students of Kennedy Catholic participate in a special welcome day. The upperclassmen help new students get to know each other and learn the traditions and customs of Kennedy Catholic High School, and experience the "family atmosphere" of which we are so proud. Throughout the year, Freshmen can expect to do monthly activities with their LINK Crew leaders.
2. Freshman Retreat
Freshman Retreat is all about building community among the Freshman class and allowing students to feel more connected to God, each other, and themselves. Freshman Retreat occurs in February and is rooted in Kennedy Catholic High School’s mission to “Graduate Leaders Following Christ in a school community that is accessible, diverse, and committed to pursuing the fullest potential of every student.” Because we feel strongly that this Freshmen Retreat touches on our mission to build students’ relationships with Jesus Christ through prayer, community, formation, and service, all freshmen students (of all faiths) are required to participate in the Freshman Retreat. This unique community event involves every single faculty and staff member, over 60 student leaders, and the entire Freshman class. It is one of the best things we do! .
