Graduation Requirement for ALL students
Overview
Earning 40 Service Learning Hours is a graduation requirement for all students. Students MUST earn a minimum of 40 hours by the end of their senior year. We encourage students to earn 10 service learning hours each. However, students may earn as many hours as they would like towards their 40 hours. Any student that earns 100 service learning hours will receive a cord to wear at graduation to reward their outstanding volunteerism and service to our community.
What are some ways to earn Service Learning Hours:
Volunteer at elementary or middle school events/tutoring a younger student
Volunteer at church events, soup kitchens, and district food pantry distribution days
Clubs, Activities, and Athletics may offer Service Learning opportunities. Please check with your coach or advisor.
