Community Service and Outreach
As stated in our mission statement, service is a crucial component to the development of our students. At Morris Catholic, we believe that the foundation of a meaningful education extends beyond academic excellence, reaching into the heart of community and service. We aim to strengthen young men and women intellectually and spiritually, ensuring they grow not only in knowledge but also in character, empathy, and a deep-rooted sense of duty to their communities. Our Mission encapsulates this vision: "Morris Catholic exists to strengthen young men and women intellectually and spiritually so they can develop character, respect for community, and lifelong commitment through the love of Christ."
