Dear Juniors:

It was great to see you all at your class meeting on Monday.

As you know, in the spirit of Sidwell Friends’ commitment to peace, justice, and community, you must complete a minimum of 60 hours of an independent, off-campus service requirement before the start of your senior year in order to graduate.

Many of you have already completed it.  Thanks for being early! If you have completed your service and have not emailed your forms to me, please do so as soon as possible. You can check the paperwork on the Classpages (Haiku) Service-Learning Graduation Requirement under the “grades” function.

The three forms are the Proposal, the Supervisor Evaluation, and the Student Reflection Essays.  The deadline to submit the Proposal is April 1st, 2018.

The final deadline is August 27, 2018.

For those who still need to complete your service, no need to panic, but you only have 7 more months to get it done!  I can help.  Please arrange a time to meet with me in my office to discuss different options for organizations to work with.

In the meantime, there are several resources online that can help you out:

Or this larger directory by social issue area:

Please email me a time to come to my office, or simply stop by during your free period.

In solidarity,

Shoshanna Sumka
