SSL Opportunities

Looking for ways to volunteer and earn SSL hours this spring? Here are a few large-scale service projects that have been preapproved for SSL hours and are seeking lots of volunteer help. Seniors: This is especially important for you if you haven’t yet completed your required 75 student service learning hours for graduation! (Students who have not been enrolled in MCPS since 6th grade will have fewer required hours.)
NOTE THAT THE DEADLINE OT SUBMIT SSL HOURS COMPLETED IN THE FIRST SEMESTER IS THE FIRST FRIDAY IN JANUARY.
The Leaders Institute is a non-profit organization serving youth in MCPS for over 5 years. Each quarter, they run leadership classes that are SSL approved and designed to help students develop the leadership qualities and characteristics colleges and businesses are looking for. Fall Course enrollment is underway; view the course catalog click here
