COMMUNITY SERVICE SEAL- 40 hours of community service over 4 years. It is recommended that students meet this total by completing 10 hours each year of high school.
A student pursuing this seal must have a plan pre-approved by his/her school counselor. The plan will describe:
What the student will do for community service and where.
Contact information and signature from someone at the organization agreeing to the community service hours
A minimum of 5 hours at any one place of service.
Students pursuing this seal will track their own hours and obtain their own signatures.
A completed service hours form is due by April 1st of the student’s senior year.
FINE AND PERFORMING ARTS SEAL- 4 high school credits in the fine and/or performing arts.
See the courses under ART and MUSIC in the Course Registration Guide for a list of credits that count for this seal.
Fine Arts credits earned through College Credit Plus and Independent Study (with transcripted credit) or transferred in from other high schools also qualify.
Many BBHHS fine arts courses are 0.5 credits each. Students pursuing this seal must keep this in mind.

A student pursuing this seal must obtain signatures from the activity’s adviser, coach, etc.. as verification of active participation.
Tracking/signature forms for each of these seals can be obtained in the school counseling office.
