Opt4Life

The Opt4Life program is one part of Marist’s commitment to the whole student experience. We make great strides to provide a safe atmosphere, where students services are available to help students develop academically, physically, socially, spiritually, and emotionally. We partner with parents to help mold young men and women who are ready for college and life. The Opt4Life program offers programming to empower our students to make good life decisions.

The following programs, services, and events fall under the umbrella of Opt4Life:

• Athletic programs
• Cook County Sheriff DUI Class
• CRASH Program
• Drug Testing
• Guidance Department Service
• Intramurals
• Post-Prom School Sponsored Celebration
• Retreats
• Speaker Series ranging from topics such as alcoholism to social media safety
• Student Activity clubs & events

Marist’s drug testing program empowers students to make good life choices. During the fall semester all students are tested at some point. During the second semester testing is randomized. All testing occurs at the school and is administered by a third party. The goal of this program is not disciplinary, it is to help students make healthy choices and to provide services and support to those in need.
