On Earth, we are simply pilgrims on a journey, a journey to experience the heights of relationship with God and the fullness of life.
All teens in grades nine through twelve are invited to live an adventurous life, a courageous life—the Christian life. L’alto: High School provides a powerful experience of Christian community through shared life, prayer, formation, and mission. Inspired by Acts 2:42, the four pillars of Dominican life, and the magnanimous life of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, L'alto: High School cultivates time and space for teens to become who God has created them to be and to set the world on fire for love of Christ.

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.)
