House System

The Donum Dei House System exists to integrate academic and character formation, providing positive motivation towards holistic development. Within these Houses, students are encouraged to build friendships across grades, practice leadership skills, engage in healthy competition, and be mentored by faculty members and older students.

 

By providing this structure, students learn to bring their talents and ideas into the life of the school with real responsibilities, real participation, and the possibility for real failure. Through healthy competition and shared goals, students learn to work together, solve problems, initiate new ideas, and participate in meaningful traditions. Each year, new students are inducted into Houses, where they will remain members throughout their time at Donum Dei.
