"To whom much is given, much is expected."
- Luke 12:48
Seniors: Local, National, and/or International Communities
Seniors are expected to complete at least 50 hours of service to the local,
national, and/or international communities. Students must volunteer at a non-profit
agency that serves people with special needs. Often students work with the
elderly, physically or developmentally challenged, economically and or academically
challenged.
There are two options:
• Seniors may apply for one of the summer immersion programs. In their
junior year they are invited to an assembly in the Larkin Center to learn about
the options that are available to them in the upcoming summer.
• Those who are not interested in a summer immersion program or are
not placed in a program will choose a pre-approved agency through Mr. Bernard.
The hours of service are to be completed with one agency unless otherwise
agreed upon with Mr. Bernard. Service hours must be performed "with
people rather than paper," meaning that seniors should not do office/clerical
work or work which does not bring them into direct contact with people. This
service must be completed either during the summer between junior and senior
year or during senior year.
IMPORTANT
Service hours are to be completed outside of students’ normal instructional
hours - that is, the activities are to take place after school, on weekends,
or during school holidays. All seniors are required to have their service hours
completed and their signed confirmation of hours form handed into the Christian
Service Office by May 28, 2008. Completion of all service hours is required
for graduation.
As always, if you have any concerns or questions, you should see Mr. Bernard.
