Senior Service Honor Cord 2024 - 2025
Seniors,
You have the opportunity to earn an honor cord, to be worn at graduation, by completing a set amount of volunteer hours and turning in the required documentation using this Senior Service form.
To earn a senior service honor cord, you must complete a minimum of 50 volunteer hours. These hours can take place during the summer coming into your senior year as well as during your senior year. The completion date to submit your hours is April 7, 2025. This allows time to place and receive the order for the cords. Please keep in mind that participation and earning this honor cord is voluntary. It is not required to graduate.
Volunteering does not have to be complicated. Our biggest concern in your volunteering is that you do it in a way that is safe and approved by your parent/guardian. Some ideas of ways to volunteer include, but are not limited to:
- tutoring
- lawn work/shoveling snow
- chores around your house
- mentorship with a class at HHS, BRCC, or MTC
- volunteering through a club
- JROTC event volunteering
- service work at your place of worship
- babysitting
