Community Involvement Information - Graduation Requirement

The community involvement requirement for graduation has reverted back to pre-COVID-19 rules.
 
Students graduating in the 2023-24 school year and beyond, will once again be required to complete 40 hours of community involvement activities. 
  • Remember "Community Involvement" is not just volunteer work, i.e., Some "Volunteer / Unpaid Work" does not qualify. (e.g. Babysitting for free, going to work with parents to help out, working for free on farms, etc. do not qualify.)
  • If you are unsure if an activity qualifies for "Community Involvement", check with the principal or guidance counsellors to ensure your hours will be approved before completing the activity.
  • Please hand in your completed community involvement sheets in the Student Services (guidance) office regularly (you don't have to wait to get all 40 hours).
  • Hours beyond the required 40 will not be recorded. You should keep those sheets in a folder to use for scholarship and resume purposes.
  • Hours must be completed by mid June of the students' graduating year to allow for approval by the principal. Community Involvement hours that are not approved will not count for graduation requirements.
