Community Service Learning

Community service-learning offers students experiences, which may provide:

  • Application of classroom learning
  • Awareness of career opportunities
  • Understanding of his/her role in society (civic responsibility)

Community service is service without pay to a non-profit agency/organization, an individual, or a group in need.

  1. Students must complete 40 hours of service and a reflection questionnaire, before May 1st of their senior year. Service may begin the summer prior to a student’s freshmen year.
  2. For students enrolled after the first semester of their freshmen year, the requirement will be prorated to equal five hours times the number of semesters enrolled in L’Anse Creuse Public Schools.
  3. Service must be performed outside of school hours.
  4. All community service must be pre-approved by the Community Service - Learning Coordinator.
  5. Childcare/baby sitting count only when done for a non-profit organization.
  6. Helping family members is done out of love and is not considered community service.

L'Anse Creuse Public Schools, for many years, has had Board of Education approved criteria for what type of service counts as community service for graduation.  Unless any future State of Michigan requirement exceeds L'Anse Creuse Public Schools requirements, we will continue to use the six criteria above.  Students transferring to L'Anse Creuse Public Schools with previous community service hours earned will be subject to the requirements listed in critieria #2.
