Service Learning Forms Collection
All students at Skyline are encouraged to participate in this optional PTSA program to build up their volunteer hours, with Freshmen eligible to start earning volunteer hours after 8th grade promotion. In order to earn the service learning cord at graduation, students must submit records of having volunteered at least 100 hours over the course of their four years of high school.
Students are welcome to leave completed forms in the PTSA drawer in the College & Career Center, which will be collected occasionally between in-person pickups. Students are advised to keep copies of all forms submitted as backup.
Email servicelearning@skylineptsa.org with questions. Thank you, Skyline parents, for joining the PTSA! Your donations help fund this and other PTSA programs that support Skyline students and staff.
