As we continue to observe Lent, each of the homerooms has been given a Lenten activity. HT is joining with other Catholic organizations around the world in Operation Rice Bowl. The objective of Operation Rice Bowl is to make us more aware of our brothers and sisters in Christ all over the world and to pray for those who are suffering. We are also encouraged to bring in our loose change and donate it to Catholic Relief Services. This money will go to help local and worldwide charities of our choice. As a school, we have set a goal of raising $500.
