Service Learning Program
DeLaSalle’s Service Learning program creates, fosters and supports opportunities for students to learn and grow as servant leaders in the world today. Through the Service Learning program, students begin to understand people in need and explore ways that they can make a difference on a local and global level. DeLaSalle hopes that such service becomes a life-long habit for its graduates. In an effort to help students explore and discover their individual call to service, DeLaSalle’s Service Learning program includes the following opportunities and requirements.
Required Service Hours
- All students (including transfer students) must complete 60 hours of service in the community by February 1st of their 12th grade year.
- 50% of required hours must be completed with one consistent organization/mission (church, camp, non-profit organization, etc.)*
- All service hours must be completed outside of DeLaSalle with community organizations. We are proud of the work our students do in the greater community, the impact they make, and the personal growth that transpires from reaching out to those in need.
How to Log and Track Service Hours
All students may log hours using a google form.
Log Service Hours on the Service Learning Entry Form
Note: students must be logged into their school email when accessing the form.
Families can view the total logged hours in their Veracross Parent Portal, and on progress reports and report cards. This log is updated monthly. Please reach out with questions to servicelearning@delasalle.com
