Seniors: Will complete 25 hours of service during their senior service week beginning on March 7th. All hours must be completed during that week. More information will be provided in their religion classes this fall.
This year, there will be no ‘S-form’ or any hours that need to be logged before the April 27th deadline. There will be various opportunities for service throughout the year offered through the FYM program and other student organizations. However, it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to complete their hours on their own.
Students will also be given a service paper/project to be done in their religion classes during the 4th quarter. Completion of service hours are required for all students. Any student who does not complete their V-form on-time will receive a zero for an assignment grade in their theology class. Additionally, students will be required to complete their hours before the end of the academic year or will be subject to further academic penalties.
Any questions should be directed to Friar Chris at cdudek@jessicafainstein.com.
