At SMA, we're creating opportunities for young women to become leaders in the service of others beyond our local community.

SMA offers Extended Service Experiences (ESE), (formally called mission trips) to junior and senior students.

ESEs will be offered on alternating summers. ESEs are longer than our usual service opportunities. Senior students will participate in an international experience and junior students in a four-day local experience.

ESEs will also include intentional preparation and follow-up, addressing the spirit, mind and body of participants.
