Together for Tomorrow: A High School Summit on Caring for Our Common Home


On Thursday, October 9, twenty-five of our Environmental Club students attended a high school summit titled Together for Tomorrow. The summit was open to all Catholic high schools in the Archdiocese of Miami and was held at Barry University, a sponsored institution of the Adrian Dominican Sisters. Over 250 students attended the summit which incorporated the five goals of the Marianist Family Encounters Project and the seven goals of the Laudato Si' Action Platform. Some of the topics discussed were Simple Lifestyle, The Cry of the Earth, Permaculture with Urban Farms and Gardens, and Ecological Economics and the Cry of the Poor.


Amal K. ‘28 shared, “I attended the summit because I believe that caring for God’s creation is one of the most important things we can do. By attending the summit, I gained insight into all the possible ways we can protect our environment. I hope to share my knowledge with others so that we can work together to uphold the Marianist charism of caring for God’s creation.”


Mauricio D. ‘26 joined the Environmental Club because he is passionate about the environment. He has been a boy scout since he was about 9 years old and enjoys camping, exploring nature, and learning about wildlife. Mauricio said, “I decided to attend the summit because I felt it would be the perfect opportunity to deepen my knowledge and appreciation of nature. The summit gave me a chance to express myself and share why it’s so important to preserve the environment. With this experience, I hope to inspire others to continue supporting conservation efforts.”


CMCP-TV produced a video in preparation for the summit. Check it out below:

Clubs and Organizations


National Spanish Honor Society

The National Spanish Honor Society celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month by organizing a 21 Spanish-Speaking Countries Flag Scavenger Hunt across the CMCP campus. Students put their knowledge of the Spanish-speaking world to the test as they competed to see who could respond the quickest. I have attached pictures of our winners below.

Service Week In February

Our annual Service Week is February 17-20, 2026. Service Week is a week in which all of our students go out into the community to serve at various sites. These sites include Feeding South Florida, beach and park cleanups, senior centers and even Best Buddies.


This year we are changing the format to include a one day retreat for each class to explore what Marianist service looks like. As we learn why we do service we can become servant leaders in our school and community.


We are looking for more people centered sites. If you know of a church, senior center, or school that could use 20 or more students for up to three hours in the morning of that week, please contact Mr. Terry, Director of Campus Ministry, at sterry@cmlions.org.
