Volunteering Information and Opportunities
Action and service have always been shared values of the IB community.
Students take action when they apply what they are learning in the classroom and beyond. IB learners strive to be caring members of the community who demonstrate a commitment to service—making a positive difference to the lives of others and to the environment. To this end, SRMS has volunteer requirements for both our students and parents. The hour requirements are:
6th grade--10 hours
7th grade--15 hours
8th grade--20 hours
Parents--total of 10 hours whether you have 1 or 3 children in the program.
