The "One Book, One Community" concept encourages Carondelet students, parents, administration, faculty and staff to read the same book and discuss it in a variety of settings. The project is designed to bring the community together by reading and sharing a book that reflects the Philosophy and Mission of Carondelet High School.
This year’s choice, Three Cups of Tea, is a story of one person becoming part of a community, and how this person plays an essential role in the community. It is the story of being welcome in, being made whole by, being grateful for and being supportive of a community. And while it is not set at Carondelet, the value of hospitality and welcome certainly is supported by our Mission Statement and out lived experience.
We shared tea together three times during the first semester to integrate discussions and prayer over our common reading experience.
We invite all … parents, alumnae and friends to join us in reading Three Cups of Tea.
