Apostolic Formation Program
Canyon Height Academy considers the apostolic life of the student to be the most evident result of the student's integral formation and relationship with God. Apostolic formation cultivates in the students the capacity to go into society to serve as Christian leaders and apostles, actively responding to the needs of the Church and humanity, creating a civilization of justice and love. Through a vibrant apostolic life, each student discovers Christ, becomes more like Christ and experiences His love more profoundly.
The apostolic formation program involves the students in age-appropriate concrete works of charity. By serving others, the students are brought into contact with the realities of life, thus awakening in them a sense of responsibility that will continue to be lived out as adults. Our Middle School students see just how far they have come in forming key leadership skills such as empathy, team work, organizational skills, planning and execution, and problem resolution. Our Lower School students learn about the needs of others and how they, with their young and loving hearts, can respond. These projects are coordinated through the Formation department.
