Community Service Requirement
-Parents Handbook-
Elementary Service Requirements Grades 4 and 5
To promote goodwill with those around us and to help students learn the value and pleasure of serving God by serving others, St. Mary’s Catholic School asks that fourth and fifth grade students provide service to our community.
Community service is a component of the Religion curriculum and will be considered a part of the quarterly Religion grade. A variety of activities is expected, students should perform at least three different types of service projects during the course of the year. Students should perform 3 hours of service each quarter. Volunteer work needs to be done without compensation. Additionally, the reflection paragraph must be completed on the following page.
Examples of activities:
Visiting a nursing home, completing a project for the school or community, participating in a clean-up campaign, performing housework or errands for ill or elderly persons, helping with after school safety patrol (15 minutes each day), altar serving (30 minutes for School Mass and 1 hour for a Weekend Mass), singing in the choir at church.
A student may use his or her own money to purchase items for a shelter. However, the money may not be counted as Christian Service, only the time taken to purchase and deliver said items.
The criteria to grade the Community Service timesheet is:
1. The student has completed at least three different types of community service in the Quarter.
(60 points)
2. The student must have write a brief description or write a topic of your service in the timesheet.
(5 points)
3. The signature of the adult confirming the services the student performed. (10 points)
4. A detailed reflection (Community Service Reflection) on the student community service. (25 points)
Grade: 100 points.
Each Quarter the teacher will grade on Student Community Service.
If the student submits the timesheet later than the due date, they will have 20 points less, for being late.
