L'alto: High School

Grades 9 – 12
On Earth, we are simply pilgrims on a journey, a journey to experience the heights of relationship with God and the fullness of life.

For teens looking to live fully, our L’alto: High School program provides high school students with a powerful experience of Christian community. Inspired by the adventurous life of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, L'alto: High School cultivates time and space for encountering Christ through prayer, the sacraments, and formation in living the Christian life. Like last year, 2022–2023 will be a more active expression of youth ministry, through outings (e.g. hiking) and service within our local community. We have fun taking life seriously.
What is L'alto?

L'alto: High School Overview

Our L'alto: High School program is for ninth through twelfth graders from all walks of life. We gather for weekly meetings (generally on Sundays* from 7-8:30 p.m.) and host periodic social events marked by Christ-centered community, prayer, and purpose. There is no cost to attend the weekly meetings, however, there is a cost for retreats and additional outings. (Costs vary based on the venue and activity and may require advance registration.)

*One Sunday per month, we will not have the normal evening gathering due to our L'alto: Confirmation program for seventh and eighth graders. On these weekends, small groups will meet offsite for an event arranged by each group individually.


Upcoming L'alto: High School Events

L'alto: High School events are open to all ninth through twelfth graders.
