Each quarter you are required to get a total of at least 6 hours of service time. Service time is volunteer work outside of normal day to day volunteer work or chores that you do.
Recording Service Time:
Once you have completed the service time you will have one week to submit the hours. You have to submit the time each time you complete them. You may not wait and submit all the time at once. Time submitted beyond the one week deadline will not be accepted. (Exceptions will be made for the hours completed during the summer.) The form to submit the time is located on the welcome page of the NJHS website. I stop accepting submissions at 3:00 pm on the last day of the quarter, unless I tell you otherwise.
Service Time:
It is your responsibility to find volunteer opportunities. If you belong to service clubs outside of school you are able to use a maximum of 2.5 hours per quarter from their events. There are a limited number of opportunities available at school. When they are available I will send an email to all NJHS members with signup information. In school volunteer activities, other than ones sent out by the adviser, must have prior approval from adviser.
