Community Service

Community Service is charitable in nature, with the goal of benefitting the community and it’s needs. Community service must be completed outside of a student’s regular school day and are NOT eligible for financial reimbursement for services rendered. Church service hours do not qualify as service hours but community projects (ie: community beautification) in conjunction with a church do qualify. Only official Key Club events will count towards Key Club Hours.
