Dake Service Learning

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Service Learning for all students at Dake?

Yes, our hope is to have every student participate at some time during the year.  Students who do not have many  study halls may not be assigned to Service Learning.

Are there other ways to complete the Service Learning hours?

Yes.  We will have school-wide events a couple times a year.  Also, students may get credit for volunteering on their own outside of school hours.  See the "Outside Hours" form.

How often will each student have Service Learning?

Each student will have Service Learning for approximately four weeks in a row during each school year.

How are students assigned to difference service projects?

The students who have a Parent Permission Form will be allowed to go off Dake property and fulfill their assignment at one of the partnering sites.  The rest of the students will stay at Dake and work on projects in school.

What if my child cannot afford the time for Service Learning?

If a student has homework to finish in Study Hall they will be allowed to not participate in Service Learning for the day.
