How Approval Works

2

Complete a Service Project Form describing the project and its expected hours.

3

Submit the form to Ms. Jones or Ms. Woodbury for approval before the project takes place. Unapproved service cannot be counted.

After completing the project, submit your validated NHS Service Form to have your points recorded.

New service opportunities are announced at monthly meetings and shared through weekly Google Chat notices sent by our student president. Questions about a specific project? Reach out to Ms. Jones or Ms. Woodbury before you begin.
