2. Completion of required service hours may include:
   1. Completed service hours
   2. Service hours that were planned/intended but were unable to be completed because the pandemic created a lack of access to volunteer opportunities
   3. Health concerns prohibited the student from complete service hours

All hours must be submitted by graduation.  The student must include a description of the volunteer services and total of hours they had planned to complete by graduation.   This must be documented on the Leon County Schools Volunteer Service hour forms and signed by a parent to verify.  Forms must be submitted to the student’s high school.
