The School Board of Broward County, Florida has incorporated Service Learning and volunteer service into the high school graduation requirements. Any student who wishes to earn a standard diploma must meet the graduation requirement of forty documented hours in the Student Volunteer Service Program.

The Service Learning Guidelines discusses the rules governing exactly what will be accepted as service learning/volunteer service hours and what won’t, the Service Hours Log is necessary to document hours and the Service Hours Application is used when a student is not performing a service as part of a school sponsored organization.

Service Hours Log must be given to a school counselor.

Any questions in regards to service hours should be given to a school counselor.
