[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Really? They expect kids to have 100+ hours of volunteering? By the beginning of 8th grade? I highly, highly doubt this. [/quote] When my kid graduated from clemente a few years ago there was a girl in the magnet program with over 500 hours. There were probably 5 other with 300? I doubt they are looking at this as well. [/quote] Last year, during the Zoom awards at TPMS they recognized some students who had completed their entire SSL requirement in middle school - that’s 75 hours. I don’t remember the exact number of students recognized but it was a handful, maybe 4 or 5. And this is at a school with a strong culture of volunteering through the Difference Makers club.[/quote]
