In every division, chapel is the gathering place of the community. It is where we find prayerful silence during our busy day, collectively cheer homecoming wins, and sing our Alma Mater with heartfelt enthusiasm. It is the space where we celebrate our traditions and ask for continual spiritual guidance as we become more decent, loving, and responsible human beings. Campbell Hall is committed to supporting and honoring the many religious, ethnic, racial, and social groups in our diverse community. We are a community of open inquiry and of spiritual formation through chapel, service learning, human development, and experiential education. LEARN MORE

Beginning in grade 4, elected student body and class officers work together to serve the needs of their fellow classmates and organize a variety of campus events throughout the year. This program gives students the opportunity to develop their skills as community leaders and work collaboratively to represent the student body.

Middle school Student Council is a group of elected representatives who plan student events, raise money for charity, and make recommendations to the assistant principal and principal regarding student life. 

In high school, the Student Council represents the school at events like Secondary Open Houses, where they serve as panelists and tour guides; they organize events like town hall forums and serve as liaisons between the faculty and students. The Student Activities Committee organizes events such as dances, homecoming, and spirit days. Elected student body and class officers, as well as appointed officers, serve one-year terms and meet weekly, learning the fundamentals of parliamentary procedure and leadership techniques as they carry out the responsibilities of their offices.

Campbell Hall offers mindfulness instruction in elementary through high school to help students learn how to be more connected, present in the moment, and free of anxiety. Based on neurological research, learning mindfulness skills helps reduce stress, strengthen attention, deepen self-awareness, and increase compassion for self and others. Mindfulness programs are also offered to parents, faculty, and staff.

The community service program seeks to help form young adults who possess strong personal values and high self-esteem, and who realize their potential to participate effectively and enthusiastically in a global society. Students participate in a wide variety of activities that help close to 150 local and national nonprofit organizations. These efforts support a broad range of causes including underserved and abused youth, the elderly, the environment, people who are homeless, health, animal welfare, and physically and mentally challenged persons. 

In the middle school, community service is a part of the advisory program. During advisory time middle school students participate in a variety of service activities. 8th grade students work for organizations across Los Angeles including Wheels for Humanity, M.E.N.D., and Food Forward during our Make a Difference Day.

I am biased as I love Campbell Hall - its culture, its students, and its community. There is absolute truth in the statement that the students of Campbell Hall were an invaluable cog in the ‘engine’ that is Community Sunday and that they exemplify everything that we aspire to in our mission - to build community through community service. They were cheerful, respectful, and so helpful over the many days that they came to our offices. The students demonstrated leadership skills, tremendous organizational ability, and an overwhelming spirit of camaraderie. They responded well to our requests, took direction easily, and above all were aware of why they were there. It is always a pleasure for us, and we are extremely thankful to everyone at Campbell Hall who works with us in making such a phenomenal difference in the lives of so many others.”

The secondary advisory program at Campbell Hall ensures every student's academic and personal development is guided by an adult advocate and creates a cohesive group dynamic by providing a space in which each child experiences a sense of belonging.

The advisory program involves secondary students in small, groups with a faculty advisor to discuss developmentally appropriate issues, learn more about the life of the school, engage in community service projects, and develop a small community within the larger community of the school. Weekly meetings often include school service group activities as well as thoughtful discussion—guided sometimes by the advisor and sometimes by students—on a wide range of issues and concerns. Advisors serve as advocates for their advisees, seeking to support them and help with concerns they might have in their journey as students.

Campbell Hall truly is a special place where kids become so much more than students; they become a part of something.”
