Graduation Project/Community Service
Pennsylvania high school students are required to complete a graduation project to receive their diploma. The Pine Grove Area High School graduation project requires students to complete a community service project designed to contribute to society. Students will complete 35 community service hours over a four year period (5 hours/year Freshman through Junior year and 20 hours during Senior year). Students may choose to complete all their hours at one project or on different projects throughout the years. Students may complete their project individually or in a group of no more than 5 students.
Students must submit a proposal of their project to the guidance office for approval. Once approved student will complete the project and log service hours with the signatures of the adult supervisor where they are volunteering.
