Distinction in Service

Mission Statement

Sayre’s Service Learning Initiative encourages students to pursue their interest in service to others by engaging in sustained service opportunities. A commitment to serving others develops problem solving capabilities, awareness of social, cultural, and economic differences among individuals, and an ability to address the needs of others with compassion and respect. We challenge students to recognize concerns in the Sayre, local, national, and global communities, and ultimately inspire them to be responsive to the challenges and benefits of devoting time and talents to the service of others.
