💜 HIGH SCHOOL SERVICE LEARNING INCENTIVE 💜
We are excited to encourage our students to get involved and give back to our school and community! Each month, the student who completes the most Service Learning volunteer hours will earn a $50 prize! 🎉 Hours are due on the last day of the month to count towards the monthly challenge.
A huge THANK YOU to State Bank of Bement for sponsoring this incentive program and helping us recognize students who go above and beyond to serve others. 💜
Whether it’s volunteering at the animal shelter, helping in the community, assisting at school, helping a neighbor, or volunteering at the Bement Nursing Home—every hour makes a difference!
Contact Mrs. Corum with any questions. Let’s get out there, serve our community, and make a difference! 🫶
