Community Service

See our Google Classroom for Community Service Hours Report that must be completed

Hello everyone,

Please read below about how to earn community service hours.

Community Service:

• 8th graders: your hours are due by May 1st of this school year. Please let me know if you need an extension.

• 7th graders: you have until May 1st of your 8th grade year to complete your hours.

• An adult (not your parent) that has supervised your service time must sign off on the hours that you have completed during that service.

• Ideas of how to earn community service hours:

  • Any neighborhood/community chore that involves assisting your neighbors/community. For example, weeding someone's garden, washing cars, cleaning windows, helping take out trash cans, etc.  If you are doing this for a neighbor, please have the adult neighbor sign for your hours to be recognized.

  • Tutoring peers or younger students in the community. 

  • Write positive notes to people living in nursing homes. Make sure you call the nursing home first and follow proper protocol.

  • Clean up your local neighborhood by picking up trash. 

  • Check out church, food banks, shelter websites for volunteer opportunities.

• Get creative and email me with any other ideas.

• Parents can not sign off on your hours.

• Scan or take a picture of your service hour log and email it to me. See email below.

Please contact me at beant@svusd.org with any questions or concerns.
