Middle School Community Service (Parent Handbook - p. 34)
To truly experience the Catholic Christian value of outreach, many Christian service activities are planned and carried out during the school year. There is a Christian service element incorporated into the Middle School Religion program.
At Our Lady of Mount Carmel School, we feel that we have the opportunity and responsibility to teach our students to serve others. As part of our service program, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students are required to complete 5 hours per trimester of volunteer work. We would like our service to reflect the various communities of which we are a part. Each trimester the students will be asked to acquire their hours serving in a different community: church/school, home or community. Five hours from volunteer work done over the summer may be credited towards the first trimester.
The students will be asked to have their community service projects pre-approved by their homeroom teacher before serving at an event or organization. Community service forms will be available in each classroom throughout the year. The completed service forms are due to the child’s homeroom teacher one week before the end of each trimester. Failure to complete the required 5 hours each trimester will result in a minimum overall effort grade of a C.
