Community Service

Community Service Deadline for 6th-10th grade Crosby Scholars:
APRIL 19, 2023
What is the Crosby Scholars community service requirement?
Each Crosby Scholar in 6th through 10th grade must complete two (2) or more hours of community or volunteer service each school year. This service should be done at a not-for-profit organization or program, and students should submit the online community service form to document their hours.
Students should not be paid, or receive a grade for their volunteer service, and due to our non-profit status, we cannot accept volunteer hours from students for working on campaigns of specific candidates during the election season.

Community Service Contests and Highlights
The Middle School Program hosts several community service contests throughout the year.
Check out the Student Community Service feature box on our website for volunteer ideas, opportunities, community service forms, and more!
After submitting your community service hours, please allow 24 to 48 hours for your community service form to be processed. Community Service hours are recorded in your Student Portal once they are processed.
Don't forget what YOU offer the community as a Crosby Scholar. Your active volunteering makes a difference. Want your service to be highlighted?
