Community Service

All students participate in community service projects at school. We collect money for charitable causes and have clothing and food drives throughout the year. Students visit nursing homes and senior citizen complexes. Upper School students regularly visit the Ford School in Lynn to read to the younger children and lead them in a variety of learning activities and projects.

Students in grades 6-8 are required to individually complete a specified number of community service hours: grade 6- 6 hours, grade 7- 8 hours, grade 8- 12 hours. Students can do a variety of projects that include volunteering at a nursing home, working at community sponsored programs, volunteering at a soup kitchen or shelter, etc.

The chavurah advisors and student council advisors help identify opportunities for volunteering throughout the school year. We encourage students to find a volunteer situation they enjoy and can stay with all year. Students are required to complete their hours by mid May.
