Dear Parents/Guardians:
We wanted to remind all parents/guardians that students need a total of 30 hours of community service to meet graduation requirements. Below is some guidelines to help you and your student complete this requirement.
Guidelines:
- Activities to accumulate hours are to commence the summer prior to the junior year and must be completed prior to June 1st of the graduation year.
- Students not completing the 30 hour requirement will be referred to the Superintendent of Schools for review of credit and determination of graduation status. The Superintendent can extend the time period at his/her discretion. The Superintendent will inform the Board of Education of all students who have failed to complete the requirement one week prior to graduation. Final determination of graduation status will rest with the Board of Education.
- No monetary compensation (pay, tips, etc.) may be accepted.
- Students may not ask to do activities for relatives or private businesses owned by relatives.
- All activities must be pre-approved. "Request for Approval" forms will be submitted to the High School Office.
Completion of the community involvement activities are the student's responsibility. Failure to complete the requirement may prevent the student from graduating. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call.
