Each freshman at Salesianum will attend a one-day retreat with the other members of their house. Facilitated by the Center for Faith & Justice, and current seniors, the TND retreat serves as an introduction to the core values of Salesian Spirituality.
Michael Reichert, Ph.D., addressed Salesianum faculty and staff at the beginning of the school year, sharing decades of research on boys as “relational learners.” He is the Executive Director of the School Participatory Action Research Collaborative (SPARC) at the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania and has over three decades of experience in clinical and consulting psychology.
On Wednesday, October 16 at 6:00 PM at Salesianum, Dr. Reichert will deliver a talk for parents entitled The Magic of Relationships in Boys Lives, sharing insights on the unique learning and developmental needs of boys and the importance of connection in their growth. Parents, guardians, and relatives of current Salesianum, St. Edmond's Academy, and Nativity Preparatory School students are encouraged to attend. Register here today!
