General Information
All students are required to complete 24 independent service learning hours. In order to earn these hours, students must volunteer with nonprofit or tax-exempt organizations.
Students must pick up and fill out a Student Service Learning form (found at the School Counseling Office) or print one of the forms from above in order to earn service hours. Forms must be signed by the student, their parent/guardian, and the supervisor at the organization they volunteered with.
Important: Virtual Service Hours forms are no longer being accepted based on an announcement from the Office of School Counseling on August 23, 2022. Hours earned after the July 15th submission deadline must be logged on the Traditional Service Hours Form and must be signed off by a parent/guardian as well as the organization with which you completed your hours.
Deadlines for submission of the Student Service-Learning Forms are listed below. Students must submit their forms by these deadlines within the academic year that they completed the hours. Late/Incomplete forms will not be accepted.
