Rye Neck High School Community Service
-
Community service is an opportunity for Rye Neck High School students to contribute in a meaningful way to the needs of the community-at large.
Through the contribution of their time and skills, the students become aware of the varied social, educational and economic needs of both their community and school.
Participation in the service program enhances the students’ awareness of these needs and presents the opportunity to give a “hands-on” response to what they encounter.
In giving a helping hand, the students move from the theoretical position of awareness of a problem and into the real possibility of doing something about it.
The normal classroom procedure does not always allow this possibility. Community service helps provide students with:
- a chance to enhance their own self-esteem
- contact with a distinct career possibility
- activities for their college applications and resume
- a training ground for good citizenship and a possible job opportunity
- the wonderful chance to experience the “joy of giving
The Rye Neck requirement for Community Service is 40 hours:
- at least 20 of those hours must be performed in the community outside of school.
- All community service hours must be approved by Mrs. Kane or a school counselor prior to the service unless the organization is on the Approved Community Service Opportunities List.
