[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An 8th grader doesn’t need to volunteer. All they do is get in the way of the adults anyway. [/quote] Do they no longer have a volunteer requirement in Civics? My now college sophomore had to do 20 hours, and my HS sophomore was only excused because they suspended the requirements due to COVID. [/quote] Requirement maybe on paper only. It’s not enforced. My son was an 8th grader last year and he said they mentioned it in class. He never did anything outside of school and didn’t log anything into the system nor did most of his friends. The local elementary school often asked for volunteers at their events and said some spots could be filled by those looking for service hours. I only know because we have younger children there and I’d get the emails. Even if he wanted to do that, the signup genius spots filled so quickly since we have a really active PTA. [/quote]
