ASSESSMENT
Each year (unit) of this program consists of 1 credit (the grade 9 credit is formally added to grade 10 so that 4
credits may be eligible for the graduation program. This program is also very
valuable for Graduation Transition Planning.
At Semester End an e-mail will be sent home (to reduce paper) giving a summary of what we have been doing,
collectively, within the Service component of our program. In December and May each student is asked to hand in
a log sheet to date and reflect on their experiences and their goals. There will be no formal grade given until the
end of the year. Logs and reflections are saved in student files at the school until grade 12 (when the files are
given to the students) so that they may be accessed by students for applications for jobs/scholarships.
*each
student will receive 10 hours of class time to add to their volunteer service time for their overall hours.
** Make Sure you add 10 hours to your volunteer time before using this chart... this is also the chart
for the end of the year total**
