Students do not log Service HOURS. We have moved to Service ACTIONS.
Complete 1 Action per semester and submit a reflection form. 2 Actions per year
Reflections must be submitted in a timely manner. Reflections are most beneficial when the details of the action are easy to remember.
Actions will be organized as a school, however students can choose to complete Individual Choice Activities in addition to the School-Wide Activities. The first action will be in September at Piedmont when we organize our International Day of Peace Event. September 20, 2024
Family involvement in the community is still encouraged.
Recognition and incentives are available for students that go above and beyond the required 2 actions. .
2 School planned event (1 per semester) and 1 additional Individual Action are the minimum requirements.
Individual Choice Activities can be any events in the local community, supporting an 8th grade community project event, school advertised events outside of school - like a stream clean-up or a campus clean-up etc...
