Wildcat Star Service

The Wildcat Star Service Program promotes student volunteerism. Students will be made aware of service opportunities, given opportunities to lead service projects, held responsible for tracking their service hours and accomplishments, and recognized publicly at graduation (indication in the program and by a cord/medal). 

The goal is to recognize students who have contributed to their community or school by volunteering their time and talents. An increasing number of scholarship applications require applicants to list service experiences. Additionally, volunteer time often leads to employment and future educational opportunities as well as helps students to understand the connection between school, work, and community.

Service for this purpose is defined through the voluntary contributions made by a student to the school or community, done without personal compensation or classroom credit. Examples include coaching youth teams, helping at church or community events, managing/keeping stats/video recording an athletic team, setting up for speech or FFA contest or assisting at contest, working on set for drama, volunteering at the public library or fire department, mentoring, serving as a teacher assistant, etc.
