COMMUNITY SERVICE REQUIREMENT. In keeping with the school’s mission to prepare students to become responsible, productive citizens, the upper school program includes a service component that works to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ a greater concern and sense of responsibility for the quality of life in the community. Student’s exposure to and participation in the various offerings of both on and off campus projects allow them to earn the 100 hours required for graduation from CSN, as well as meet the requirements for other awards such as membership in the National ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Bright Future Scholarship Program. In addition to the many opportunities offered through the Office of Student Activities, each upper school grade adopts a local agency in which they become involved throughout their high school years. Students are encouraged to participate in all grade level projects organized by class officers. Additional assistance is provided to freshmen through organized Experiential Service Days during which students go into the community to work with local agencies. It is the hope that through this exposure to different opportunities, students will find a volunteer position that is both interesting and rewarding and that students will realize the value of one’s contribution to the community. All students must complete twenty-five hours of service per year, a minimum of ten must be community service hours worked on campus. Students may arrange their own projects and/or participate in those offered through the school. A list of opportunities is available in the Student Activities Office. All hours for undergraduates must be completed by the first Friday in May. Failure to do so will result in placement in structured study hall during the first quarter of the following year. To be eligible for graduation, seniors must complete their community service hours by the first Friday in May.
