Seniors
Fall Retreat
On Friday, September 17, 2021, from 8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m., students will attend their senior class retreat. The theme of the day is "Gratitude for Being Here" and takes on a more celebratory and reflective tone than previous retreats. Our hope is students take time to consider how they intend to share their gifts and model a supportive, inclusive community. Students are encouraged to envision what they hope for themselves in their last year of high school and take the first steps to making that happen while on this retreat.
This is a required program at Central Catholic. Attendance at the Senior Retreat is mandatory. Please encourage your student to make the most of the day. With your support, it will be a rewarding experience. You may need to rearrange doctor appointments or other commitments that would prevent your student from fully participating in this day. We will provide more information the week of the retreat.
The day will be filled with outdoor activities, small group sharing, and reflection. Campus Ministry team members and other teachers will lead our retreat.
Central Catholic's Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Policy remain in effect for Campus Ministry in-person and virtual offerings.
If you have any questions, please call Grace Laskowski at 503-235-3138 x1148 or email her at glaskowski@
Thank you for your support. We look forward to this day of faith and sharing with your student.

Spring Retreat
Our springtime Senior Retreat will take place on Saturday, May 14 at Camp Eagle Fern from 7:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. This retreat is designed to support you as you finish your time at Central Catholic and transition to the next period of your lives. The seniors who have gone in the past have treasured this retreat as an important time with their peers as well as a time for prayerful reflection at the end of their senior year. As a participant, you will also have an opportunity to do a High Ropes Challenge course at Camp Eagle Fern. There is a $50 fee to participate in this retreat. (If financial assistance is needed, please let Ms. Laskowski know.) The $50 ropes course fee will be billed to your student account.
Registration opens in April and is limited to the first 65 students who turn in completed forms.
