It is required for students to complete at least 18 hours of community service before graduation at APW. Completing community service hours does not only allow you to meet the graduation requirement, but also makes you eligible for a wide variety of college scholarships when your senior year comes to a close. Check in with your school counselor regarding opportunities to fulfill this requirement.

You can submit your volunteer hours electronically using the Volunteer Hours Form and your school counselor will be able to see all of your volunteer hours.
