As part of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma, all present grade 9, 10, 11 and 12 students must complete 40 hours of community involvement over their 4 years of high school. This can begin in the summer before students begin grade 9. Community involvement is an opportunity to give back to others in need or support an organization that requires assistance without getting paid to do so.
Grade 12 students must submit their community involvement hours by May 1st of their graduating year to guidance.
Students can submit their volunteer hours to guidance if using a paper tracking sheet like this one (Community Involvement Activity Record)
Or complete a fillable PDF form that will automatically be sent to Guidance. (Community Involvement Online Form)
