[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son goes to Blake. He did he hours over the summer and they weren’t added until January. There was excuse after excuse every time I followed up. Other schools that my kids attended had them entered within the week. I say if you’re getting a stipend, you should take the time to do them in a timely manner (a month or less). Six months is unacceptable. He’s not going to do anymore hours past 75 because it’s not worth the follow up and headache. [/quote]

The whole process is antiquated.  Printing a form to be signed, then scanned and emailed into a black hole is not a good way to track progress.  They really need to create an online portal to log hours and track in real time.[/quote]

+1  It's so obsolete and they absolutely should do an online form.  Some institutions don't send the SSL forms on time, not every kid has a printer at home to get the forms printed out and get them in by the deadline which is May 30, despite having additional weeks available for the school year.

For example, Friends of the Library of Montgomery County sent the SSL form to my kid on May 29 for hours done in February. With their school deadline being May 30, and my kid wasn't able to get to a printer to turn it in before the deadline and "lost" those hours.
