Greetings!

Welcome to the start of a fresh new year here at Servite High School!  We had a successful first day of school and are excited for the new school year! As you all probably noticed, there are great changes happening here on campus. With a full renovation underway, we hope to make you even more proud to be a member of the Servite Family.  We have a new look for the Friar Focus!  You will notice in the left side bar, all of the buttons are clickable navigating you to important parts of our website.  We have the sporst/events schedule as well as the weekly menu!  Keep an eye out for our Student and Staff highlights in the upcoming issues...
Servite is Getting a Makeover!
Capital Campaign Project
 

It has been a long and dusty summer, but the Servite campus renovation project is near completion. Construction began on the entrance, quad, Grotto and Alumni Garden June 20, 2012 and the last brick was placed in the founders procession at 6:15pm on Tuesday, August 14, 2012. The entire campus has been transformed to an open and warm environment. Every square foot of surface from La Palma out to the parking lot was replaced.  When completed, the new campus will tell a story about who we are as a Servite community...

 

Read more here about the new updates to the campus and our special meaning behind each and every part of it.  We will also be uploading a time lapse video soon, so check back to view!

Parents...You are Invited...Friar Feast!
September 7, 2012 - 6:30 - 10:00 pm - Servite Quad
 

Friar Feast is just 3 weeks away!  Friar Feast is an adult only event that celebrates ALL ACTIVITIES that Servite has to offer our young men. It is the only event each year that provides an opportunity for the sports teams and clubs of Servite to raise funds for their organizations. The sport teams and clubs of Servite sponsor food booths much like "Taste of Newport". Admission is free, the food and beverage prices are reasonable and the dress code is casual. Besides the different types of cuisine offered, there is also entertainment by Soul Pursuit, silent auction, and raffles. So please join us for a fun evening!

The New Official Fan Gear Store is OPEN!
Stop by and get your gear for the year!

 

The Servite Trinity Corporation Executive Team along with all of our student interns are pleased to announce the completion and move of our main campus store. All of the net income from sales at our store are directed to financial aid and last year alone  supported  the attendance of 65 additional Friars... brothers helping brothers.

 

The Official Fan Gear Store is located at the entrance to the new Founders Walk. Over the course of the next few weeks you will see  new items, one of a kind items and limited editions. We have created a section dedicated to all thirteen of our sports programs and have expanded our jacket line . Last but not least, we are introducing a collection of ladies apparel which will be innovative and changing often. In addition to our regular daily hours Monday through Friday 12pm to 6pm and Saturday 10am to 1pm,  you will also be invited to shop after every football game. There will be a special surprise each week just for post game shoppers! Come visit us!


 

 

The Fresh Kitchen
Updates to our Fresh Grill choices
 
  The Fresh Kitchen is pleased to announce an expansion of our "from scratch" menu and daily Fresh Grill choices. The concept of freshly constructed, grilled sandwiches took off last year and we are expanding the choices daily. We are also  pleased  to announce new  partnerships with source butchers, organic farmers and dairymen in our preparation kitchen. One of our successes from last year was our relationship  with Healthy Vending as providers of healthy snack and beverage choices. We will be adding 2 additional machines on campus... and they take credit cards. We will continue to  share all of our innovations with you as the year progresses through this newsletter and online.  Lastly, we will be posting our daily specials menu online so your sons can plan ahead. We invite you to come visit our Fresh Kitchen whenever you are on campus!

 

Meal Cards

Each Servite student is issued a Student ID Card. This ID card is also used to purchase meals at the Servite Cafeteria. You may apply or "load" funds to the card at the Servite Business Office by either cash or check. Funds may also be added to the card over the Internet through a secure web portal on Servite's website by using a Visa or MasterCard. To access this portal click here. All card loads are "real time" and funds are available on the meal card instantly.

 

 

Thank you for taking the time to read our Friar Focus!  Stay tuned for more updates next week, we look forward to the 2012-2013 school year with all of our wonderful students and parents!
 
Credo,
