I know you are all pretty busy and sometimes it's hard to put in time for community service hours. Please keep track of all the time you do put into school shows, community events, and special activities as those hours count for service.
You can also "earn" hours by making donations to charities and participating in school charity events:
Right now, hours can be earned by donating to the canned food drive for Thanksgiving. Please deliver the cans to my room by Friday (November 16). Examples of needed items are rice, beans, corn, fruit cocktail, granola bars, cereal, and mashed potatoes. I will sign your community service log for 2 hours for every item donated. For example, if you bring 5 items you can earn 10 hours. Make sure you have the log with you at that time as I will not sign for hours after the fact.
If you are interested in the Breanna Vergara Foundation walk and color run, please ask Mrs. Rodriguez, the dance coach, for details on how to register. This is a fun way to earn hours as well.
When other events come along, check with me to see if they qualify for community service volunteering!
