Community Service
Students must earn forty (40) hours of Community Service as one of their graduation requirements. Students may begin to earn these hours once they complete their 8th grade year. The hours may be earned all at one time, or in any manner that meets the student schedule during their high school years but must be completed prior to the student’s participation in a commencement ceremony and the granting of a diploma.
Community Service is any volunteer service that is done for a non-profit agency or organization. A nonprofit designation and tax-exempt status are given only to organizations that further charitable, cruelty-prevention, educational, literary, public safety, religious, or scientific causes or purposes. Examples of nonprofit organizations include hospitals, universities, national charities, churches, and foundations. School service is also included.
