Community Service

Students are required under OSS to complete 40 hours of community involvement activities for an Ontario Secondary School Diploma. These hours may be spread out over the four years of high school. We recommend that a student complete a minimum of 10 hours per year, starting in Grade 9.

This requirement is to encourage students to give their time and God-given talents to care for others in their own community without receiving monetary reward.

Students have opportunity to experience the reward that comes with freely giving to those in need and gain a sense of belonging to the community. Community involvement activities are a required part of the school program.
