Community Service Projects

Service to Humanity: Learning That Makes a Difference

At Nancy Campbell Academy, service isn’t just an activity; it’s a core part of our identity. We believe that a meaningful life is found through contributing to the well-being of others.

Our community service program is where students put our school’s values into action, developing their character while making a real and positive impact on the world around them.

Our Philosophy: A Commitment to Service

Our commitment to service is rooted in the belief that students should be active agents in bettering their communities.

It’s an opportunity to develop individual potential, gain practical work experience, and understand complex social issues firsthand.

This hands-on approach to learning helps students build empathy, leadership, and a sense of joyful purpose that lasts a lifetime.

Where Our Students Serve

Mentoring Our Youth

Students have ongoing opportunities to work with children and junior youth.

This includes acting as volunteer “animators” in the Junior Youth Empowerment Program to help guide youth aged 11-15 and working with “little buddies” on special projects at local elementary schools.

Leading Community Initiatives

Through our World Citizenship Curriculum, senior students lead a real community initiative from start to finish as a capstone project.

Younger students also take the lead, such as the Grade 7/8 students who ran a school-wide composting project.

"NCA is “a place that cultivates leadership in spades,” praising our students for showing what’s possible when service, integrity and unity guide your life."

Martin Ritsma

Mayor of Stratford
