Retreat Program

St. Augustine High School offers class level retreats. The 9th, 10th and 11th grade retreats center around the core Augustinian values: Community, Truth and Love. Freshman are required to attend the Freshman Overnight Retreat which focuses on embracing the SAINTS community through interaction with fellow 9th graders, upperclassmen leaders, faculty and staff members, and reaching out to the various surrounding communities.
Sophomores and Juniors are also required to attend day long retreats which are designed to guide and encourage the students as they continue to grow on their spiritual journey. The Sophomore retreat centers around Truth, one of the Augustinian core values. This retreat allows the 10th graders to reflect and evaluate their experiences at SAINTS while incorporating social justice issues that face our world today.
During the Junior Year, students will attend a mandatory day retreat which will revolve around the Augustinian core value of Love. Juniors will be invited to learn more about the world they live in, the relationships they cherish and the peers they have shared their SAINTS experience with.
The KAIROS retreat, a 4-day, 3-night retreat for seniors, is an intense spiritual experience of self, others and the community. This retreat is student led. Each senior will have the opportunity to attend a KAIROS retreat by filling out an application. Each year, there will be a Junior KAIROS held in March.
