Community Service & Service Learning
Scholars work with Core staff to identify non-profit organizations and community initiatives they are curious about and the Scholars plan community service projects once a month. Service is a way for Scholars to display what they have learned in Character Education, develop empathy, and invest in their community, just as the community has invested in each of their success. Scholars complete 50 hours of service, annually.
