Log Sheet for Community Service Hours Tracking

NOTE: DUE TO COVID-19, BE SURE TO INQUIRE ABOUT ANY SAFETY RESTRICTIONS AND GUIDELINES IN PLACE FOR ANY COMMUNITY SERVICE EVENT OR LOCATION.

Tracy Unified School District DOES NOT have a community service requirement for graduation. There may be programs or academies at your school that require community service. Students enrolled in a specific program or academy should contact the program advisor to get any forms or instructions. It is the student's responsibility to turn in any required forms to the program or academy advisor.

All students are encouraged to provide community service in order to become aware of the multiple needs of the community in which they live and develop a sense of moral obligation to help those less fortunate, and the desire to make one’s community a better place to live.

Students are also encouraged to track their community service hours to use for college application purposes and to be eligible for various community service based scholarships offered.

Community Service opportunities are posted as received in the daily student bulletin (when available) and through the Career Center Remind App. The log sheet can be printed from the link above to track hours. NOTE: LOG SHEETS ARE FOR YOUR TRACKING PURPOSES ONLY AND DO NOT NEED TO BE TURNED IN TO THE CAREER CENTER.
