community connectionSt. Pius School is deeply rooted in service, faith, and meaningful community connections. Our students regularly participate in outreach activities such as food drives for St. Vincent de Paul, Christmas toy collections for families in need, monthly Senior Friendship gatherings, and school-led Catholic Masses. Through these experiences, students learn compassion, gratitude, leadership, and the importance of giving back. These shared partnerships strengthen our mission to form engaged, empathetic, faith-driven learners who actively contribute to their community.
