Service Hours Requirement

All high school students are encouraged to build a heart of worship through service to their community. A few examples of service include working along with adults in any church or community ministry, lawn/home/pet care for a family friend or a neighbor without pay, volunteering to work in the concession stand during a game or tournament, baking goodies for first responders, or writing letters to service personnel.  Note that service hours cannot be performed for family and no compensation should be received.

Students will use FACTS to track the number of service hours they have earned. High School students must complete 10 hours of service per semester for a total of 20 hours per year. Any graduating senior who has accumulated 200+ hours will be acknowledged at the graduation ceremony.

Service Hours Requirement

One goal of CCS is to help develop godly individuals who are usable for God's service in His church and in the world. All students are encouraged to develop Christ-like character as they practice serving those around them. 

In order to build the habit of service, all middle school students are required to log at least five service hours each semester. A few examples of service include working along with adults in any church or community ministry, lawn/home/pet care for a family friend or a neighbor without pay, volunteering to work in the concession stand during a game or tournament, baking goodies for first responders or writing letters to service personnel.  Note that service hours cannot be performed for family and no compensation should be received.  Bible teachers will provide more information and provide forms that students will turn in by the end of each semester to verify their service.
