Community Involvement:
Every student is required to complete 40 hours of community involvement in order to receive a diploma. Students can start accumulating community involvement hours in the summer before they enter Grade 9. Some students may wish to complete more than 40 hours. If you go above and beyond in your volunteer work during high school, you can earn a Minister's Certificate of Recognition for Community Involvement when you graduate. This new certificate celebrates your dedication to helping others and for completing more than 50 volunteer hours during high school. There are three levels of recognition:
Bronze 50-99 hours
Silver 100-199 hours
Gold 200+ hours
Community involvement sheets can be printed off from the following link: Community Involvement Form or picked up from the CCI Guidance office.
