During the 2004-05 school year, the administration asked Servite Coach and teacher, Larry Toner, to develop a program that would formalize the life principles and ethics that he demanded of his players and students and apply them to the entire student body. The result is the Servite Formation Program now considered a model for private secondary schools.

This July 25th and 26th is your opportunity to witness the formalization of what was implicit in your Servite experience. Come join us either July 25, 2 - 4 pm in the Servite Gymnasium to witness Freshman Formation Weekend's opening session on what it is to be a Friar. Or, join us July 26, 6 - 9 pm on the Servite Athletic Field. RSVP by July 22, 2014 to Marc Woods '65, Director of Alumni Relations: mwoods@servitehs.org.

Servite football continues its tradition of playing one of the toughest high school football schedules in the country. September 27 pits Servite against California's most dominant football program, De La Salle High School of Concord.  Over the past 5 years the Spartans are 69 - 4 and California Open Division Champions in 4 of the past 5 seasons.

We are in the process of scheduling a northern California reunion in Concord around the game. Contact Marc Woods '65 @ (714) 774-7575 x 1138.
