    Career & Academic Pathways: Community Service and Volunteering

    Overview:

    Congratulations on your decision to volunteer and join the nearly 1.5 million volunteers currently helping to make the Garden State a great place to live and work. New Jersey’s volunteers fulfill unique and important roles in their service throughout the state. They take the initiative to respond in crisis situations, mentor and tutor children with educational needs, and are an essential part of the quality of care in the health field. Whether working as individuals or in teams, volunteers demonstrate compassion in action and truly make a difference.

    Students must do 28 hours for 1.25 credits per year. Students can earn a maximum of 5 credits over 4 years, and these may be used as elective credits. Must be completed between 7/1 and 6/30 of a given school year for credit.

    Northern Highlands is using a new volunteering app called VOMO. Please see Ms. Hayes for further information on how you can receive credit for your hours of service and read the attached document. Please follow each step regarding submission for credit:
