Christian Service Announcements
Dear Lancers,
Due to the pandemic, we are suspending the 20 hours of Christian Service requirement for this school year except for some seniors who have not turned in anything or severely deficient on this requirement.
If you have in your possession any signed/verified service hour sheet(s), you must log these on your student portal and keep the verification sheets because we will collect them once we come back.
For those who want to continue doing Christian Service, there are many ways you can help out that doesn’t necessarily require close physical contact and keep social distancing. Please refer to the links provided by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
https://californiavolunteers.ca.gov/get-involved/covid-19/signup/
Please remember that per Lancer Life, students are not allowed to work at for profit organizations, family companies, nor have their parents sign their service hour sheets.
Documentation is a very important part of your service. Therefore in lieu of getting a signature from a volunteer supervisor, I recommend that you take clear pictures of your charitable works as proof. Take note of the important data required in the Amat Service Verification sheet that you can find on the school website.
Thank you
