[quote=Anonymous]On the other hand, MCPS (Montgomery County Public Schools) in Maryland, have 75 hours of documented service hours (they call it SSL) as a graduation requirement. This is the floor. Kids can start earning these hours by doing volunteer work (from SSL-approved organizations), filling the forms after each volunteer work and submiting it in their school SSL coordinator. It shows up in the report cards and on college transcripts. What they also do not tell students is that the SSL helps to weave a story for their interest and contribution in their college essays and that there are specific SSL hours prerequisite for application to a number of Honor Societies in HS. Like MCPS, if service hours is a graduation requirement or MS requirement...you probably don't get to graduate without some remediation of the situation, I would think. [/quote]
