The Four as One Project was developed by the Class of 2009. The participating schools are All Saints School, The Brook Hill School, T. K. Gorman, and Grace Community High Schools. This project, in the spirit of cooperation, not competition, joins the forces of these four private schools in an effort to make a difference in the community through service. This project gives us the opportunity to work together and form bonds between the students of the four schools while making a larger impact on the community than any of the four schools could accomplish individually.
During the week of December 3rd, 843 students, along with faculty and advisors from the four schools served 29 agencies, logging over 6,500 community service hours.
While contacting the agencies, we identified a need and have responded by creating this web site. This site will provide the opportunity for the non-profit agencies and the students to coordinate their volunteer service throughout the year. This site will also allow the agencies to post their needs, giving our students the opportunity to respond to better serve the community, fostering the volunteerism that impacts both the lives of those served and the ones who serve.
The goal of the project is to foster the spirit of volunteerism among our students and the community at large, while strengthening relationships among the four schools.
The Class of 2009 will continue leading this project until the time of graduation, passing it on to future classes, to carry on the tradition of a unified community service project.
