All students in the high school have a community service requirement to meet before they can graduate and there is also a leadership program for high school students. At the beginning of the school year, or whenever you have all of your event dates set, we send an e-mail to the teacher that heads up the leadership program and request volunteers. Not only does this give us helping hands and free child care givers, but it also gives them the hours they need to graduate!
